City Snapshot

City Snapshot: Greater London

Just a stone’s throw from the River Thames – between Wandsworth and Battersea – this practical apartment is ideal for those looking to escape the tourist crowds and enjoy some of the city’s loveliest green spaces. Wandsworth Common, Clapham Common and Battersea Park are all within easy reach, as is Chelsea just across the river. While the decor is a little generic for our liking, there’s a private patio garden for alfresco dining and the sofa bed in the living room offers flexible sleeping options. There’s a decent-sized kitchen here too, sure to come in handy when you’re not out sampling the many pubs and restaurants in the area.


Home truths:
*At capacity, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area *The decor here is practical – those looking for a luxurious stay may wish to look elsewhere *There's no desk here, but the dining table can double up as a laptop-friendly workspace *Given the home's central location, you may hear some street noise *Single-use toiletries are provided for the first two days of your stay *The building's entrance is shared with the other residents *We recommend skipping the car here and exploring London on foot or by public transport instead *The home is within a ten-minute walk of Clapham Junction and Wandsworth stations
