A Simple Charm

This home may not be huge, but it's an ideal option if you're looking to trade in the busy London streets for a quiet and cosy retreat. The living space overlooks a leafy street in the residential Barnsbury neighbourhood – yet it's just a twenty-minute walk to vibrant King's Cross. The communal gardens are the perfect spot for a coffee in the morning, while the corner dining table is the ideal setup for board game nights. It's a short walk to Islington's Upper Street, little-known among tourists, yet filled with trendy restaurants and historic pubs – don't miss out on a trip to Ottolenghi.

Home truths:
*Starter toiletries are provided. However, you will want to stock up on other essentials such as coffee and tea, as these are not included.
*Self-check-in is available here. You'll either pick up the keys at a nearby property or use a lockbox on the premises. Your host will confirm instructions before your arrival.
*Your host uses a third-party platform called Truvi for ID verification and to manage damage deposits independently from Plum Guide. They'll send you a link to fill out when you book.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a travel cot for free on request – you'll have to bring your own linens.
*You'll have access to the communal garden here, which is shared with building's other residents.
