Jasmine Mews

Few homes scream 'quintessentially London' as loudly as this mews house. Secluded down a cute cobbled street, it boasts a wrought-iron spiral staircase, a balcony and a large, bright kitchen. There are also three single beds, which will suit families well. We loved how the relatively small space never feels cramped, and how the relaxation of a home is combined with a hotel-like concierge service. The Tate Britain's domestic artwork and The Thames are very nearby, as is Pimlico’s Underground station.

Home truths:
*The large windows in the living room/kitchen look directly onto the mews at street-level.
*There aren't any bedside reading lights in the single-bed bedrooms.
*The spiral staircase leading up from the living room probably isn't suitable for toddlers or frail elderly guests.
*The bathroom in this home is compact. That said, it has everything you need to get ready for the day.
