Colours On The Canal: Île-de-France

Space in central Paris is very hard to find, which is why this expansive apartment is such a rare gem. Huge and layered with open space, it can comfortably hold eleven guests without feeling cramped or crowded.

Deep, warm colours make you feel immediately at home, whilst subtle patterns and chic artwork supply a distinctly French vibe. The felt sofas facing the TV are a cosy spot to catch a film or just curl up with a book. Come mealtimes, share bread, wine and cheese on the black dining table.

Of course, there's a high probability you'll be out exploring Paris when lunch or dinner strikes. You're just moments from the metro station for quick and convenient travel, or you can just take a stroll along the River Seine to take in the romance of the city.

If it's your first time in the city of love, make sure to stop off at the cute cafes in between your sightseeing itinerary. After all, just sitting outside with a coffee or pastry, taking in the charm and enchantment of your surroundings, is what Paris is all about.

Home truths:
* There are two sofa beds – one in the living room and one in the third bedroom
* There is noise from the courtyard sometimes when the windows are open, but it remains quiet when the windows are closed
* You're located very close to a metro station
