Girl and the Pearl

Girl and the Pearl: Bristol

Give riverside living a whirl at this stylish apartment located in Harbourside, Bristol's most sought-after neighbourhood. Housed in a Grade II-listed Edwardian building overlooking the river, the original lofty bay windows and ceilings remain, while contemporary, mid-century inspired furniture is paired with a soft colour palette to keep the apartment feeling current. Placed just a twenty-minute walk from Bristol Temple Meads Train Station, arriving at this apartment is a cinch if you'd rather not drive. And there's plenty to discover on foot from this apartment too. In the charming, cobbled streets, uncover a rich maritime history, buzzy restaurants, craft beer barges for an obligatory pint of cider, independent boutiques, and galleries and museums aplenty. And no visit to Bristol would be complete without some Banksy-spotting along the river - keep an eye out for his parody of Vermeer's famous Girl with a Pearl Earring - it's quite a showstopper. When it's time for a change of pace, Brandon Hill Nature Park (sixteen minutes on foot) is an excellent spot for a rest up and picnic. Or you could stay exactly where you are by the harbour. Dangling your feet over the water, as you watch the world go by, could be all you need.
