Lush Luxe

Lush Luxe: Greater London

With big windows flooding each room in light, cosy velvet furniture ideal for lounging and sleek accents like marble backsplash, rainfall showers and gold fittings, it's clear that this apartment is a stylish stay in the heart of West London. It has a lush, luxurious vibe that wouldn't be out of place in neighbouring Kensington, and there's plenty of space to entertain – whether you're resting weary feet on the sofa, preparing dinner in the glossy kitchen or sharing a meal around the dining table, you'll have more than enough room here to spread out and get comfortable.

Set in an apartment block in a quiet pocket of the neighbourhood, you're a little off-the-beaten-track here yet still close to all London has to offer. Shepherd's Bush isn't a far walk – about ten minutes, give or take – and has eateries, a famous market and Westfield Shopping Centre for you to discover. There's also Kensington High Street – ten minutes away on foot – where you'll find chic boutiques and delicious restaurants, and Holland Park is within easy reach if you're in the mood for an afternoon stroll. When the city comes calling, hop on the tube from Shepherd's Bush and you'll be in Oxford Circus in fifteen minutes, flat.
