Under the Crown

Under the Crown: Greater London

Situated in one of London's most historic landmark buildings, this apartment makes a fabulous base for sightseeing or commuting. Kids under 12 aren't permitted, but families with older children or groups of friends will settle right in. Plenty of the city's best bits are just a stroll away, including the London Eye, Trafalgar Square, and St James's Park. Charing Cross is close by, plus bus stops to put London right at your fingertips. Indoors, the grand open-plan living space enjoys high ceilings and a private balcony with views of the street below. The kitchen is on the smaller side but it's well-equipped for prepping small meals, but local restaurants are just minutes away when you don't feel like cooking.

Home truths:
*Children under the age of 12 aren't permitted at this home.
*Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. You'll find the famous Charing Cross station around a ten-minute walk away.
*The second bathroom is very small. That said, it has everything you need to get ready for the day.
*Bed linens and towels are changed weekly at this home.
*Your host will welcome you in person when you first arrive.
*The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste and feels a little dated in parts. As it was purpose-built for rentals, it's not the most soulful or charming space.
