The Victorian Palette

The Victorian Palette:

You may think of a city break home as more of a base from which to explore, but this London family home is so much more than that. Spanning four floors, it gives everyone enough room to holiday in comfort and still puts you on the doorstep of the bustling city beyond the front door.

Visit Battersea Park during the day and see a live music show at O2 Academy Brixton at night. Jump on a bus into central London and hop from Buckingham Palace to Westminister and Big Ben as you take family photos in front of one landmark after the other. Dine at some of the trendiest eateries in London, and come home with a bag full of fresh pastries to enjoy in the garden.

Extremely homely, you’ll find a balance of modern and period features here – think bay windows, high ceilings and statement fireplaces next to sleek marble kitchen counters. Find your stride here, whether sunbathing in the back, starting a new creative project at the desk or sprawling out on the sofa with a good book.

Home truths:
*This home is spread over four floors, with no internal lift
*Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible
*Your host can provide a high chair for free upon request
*There's a dedicated desk here if you need to catch up on some work during your stay
