This Is Soul

This Is Soul: Greater London

Located in London’s leafy Lambeth district – just a short stroll from Brixton’s lively bar and food scene, as well as from affluent Clapham – this beautifully styled apartment is just the ticket for those looking for a laid-back stay away from the tourist crowds.

Make your way upstairs to the wonderfully bright open-plan living area where soothing shades of grey are offset by vibrant pops of colour in the artwork and decorations. We love the bay window seat that invites you to curl up on it with a mug of tea and one of the many books on the shelves, while the sociable kitchen beckons homecooked meals serenaded by the record player and its selection of vinyl.

The two downstairs bedrooms, meanwhile, are pared-back and peaceful, styled with a homey touch and soft pastel hues that feel instantly welcoming.

But our favourite spot has to be the gorgeous private garden. Follow the string of colourful lanterns into this plant-framed spot to enjoy sunny breakfasts around the outdoor table and celebratory sundowners lounging on the sofa here. Day or night, you’ll love retreating to this quiet space – your very own urban oasis.

Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy reach. Spend a delicious afternoon at The Chocolate Museum (under a ten-minute walk), take a stroll through Brockwell Park (under twenty minutes away on foot) and explore the tantalising food stalls around Brixton Market (just over a ten-minute stroll away).


Home truths:
*While its entrance is on the ground floor, this home is laid out over two floors with internal stairs between them
*A cot is available on request
*There's no desk, but the breakfast bar doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
*Out of respect for the neighbours, your host asks that the garden not be used after 11pm on weekends and after 10:30pm on weekdays
*There's a security camera in the rear garden and one pointed towards the home's exterior – audio is disabled
*Self-check-in is available
* 24-hour call support is available
*The building's entrance is shared with the other residents
*We recommend skipping the car here and exploring London on foot or by public transport instead – Clapham North Station is a nine-minute walk away
