Borough Bliss

You’ll have your pick of a slew of London’s best-loved hotspots in this well-placed apartment. If you’re after some of the city’s best finger food, Borough Market awaits just a few minutes away – then there’s the Shard, where you can ascend to the observation deck for a spectacular view. Though you’ll need to climb a few stairs to get to the front door of the home (there’s no lift here), it’s well worth it for the location – and the apartment itself is cosy and well-designed, with pops of colour from its decor lending it plenty of charm and character.

Home truths:
*This home is on the first floor with no lift access. It may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
*There's no air conditioning here, but your host can provide fans on request.
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
*Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. London Bridge station is a few minutes away by foot.
