Mirror, Mirror On The Wall

A one-bedroom West London flat bursting with English period detail. Take the living room, where country-house style watercolours hang below elegant Victorian ceiling friezes. Gold and silver-framed mirrors add a sense of space, and there's a tub in the marble bathroom. It’s all deeply snug and romantic – as are strolls through higgledy Brompton Cemetery, one of London’s greatest green spaces. Bustling shops and numerous restaurants await just five minutes away in either direction up the quiet street.

Home truths:
* There is limited hanging wardrobe space in the bedroom but there is a closet in the hallway that can also be used for hanging items
*Two guests can sleep on the double sofa bed in the living room
*This home is in an old building, so expect to hear some sounds from the flat above and street noise
