The Peacock Room

The Peacock Room: Greater London

There's a clue to this beautiful Chelsea home's past in the fun and thought-provoking art adorning the walls – formerly, it was a Victorian artist's studio. Recently refurbished to a high standard, your host has done a wonderful job retaining the character. After a busy day exploring London, unwind in the courtyard, relax on the jewel-hued sofa with a glass of Champagne or read some of the books in the egg chair. We loved the creative energy this apartment has – it will probably take all of your time here to explore the treasures it holds.

The location in fashionable Chelsea is as impressive as the home itself. There are plenty of stylish restaurants nearby, or have a stroll around Chelsea Harbour, just over ten minutes on foot. The boutiques of the King's Road are just over a ten-minute ride, or it's the same distance to the Saatchi Gallery if you want to admire some more artworks. South Kensington tube station is a fifteen-minute stroll away, while Fulham Broadway is less than a ten-minute walk from your door.
