A Corner of London

This light-filled apartment puts London at your fingertips. Edgware Road, which connects you to most of the city, is just a few minutes away. But, if you'd rather stay local, there's plenty to enjoy – the pretty canals of Little Venice, leafy Regent's Park, and the independent eateries in Marylebone, to name a few. For couples or solo travellers, this pad is the perfect size. The open-plan living area is bright and roomy, with a table that doubles as a desk. A private balcony is the cherry on top, perfect for morning coffee and evening tipples.

Home truths:
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a crib on request.
*There isn't a desk here, but the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace if you need to work from home.
*The balcony is a tad overlooked by the neighbouring buildings.
*The entrance to this apartment building is shared with other residents.
