Gifted in Gold

Gifted in Gold: Greater London

Meandering walks through neighbouring Hyde Park and shopping sprees in Knightsbridge and Mayfair's Bond Street are on offer at this deluxe home. Soho is nearby too, and if you need to catch a train Paddington Station is a mere 10-minute walk. Taking up the entirety of a golden-hued Georgian townhouse, a stay here means visiting London’s classiest neighbourhoods in style. Aspiring chefs will love the gourmet kitchen and pantry and the grand lounge inspires evenings socialising together. Bedrooms and reception rooms are spread across four levels inside and the main bathroom features a deep soaking tub. Plus, there’s a playroom and yoga space, and a roof terrace – a rarity in a spot this central.

Home truths:
*This is a historic home, split across four levels. With a lot of stairs inside, it may not suit those with limited mobility.
*Your host welcomes well-behaved dogs here. Let them know in advance if you're bringing a four-legged friend.
*Quiet hours are in effect between 10pm and 8am.
*While there's no private parking here, you're in the centre of London and exploring on foot is easy. There are plenty of public transport options so having a car is not necessary.
