Chelsea Moment

Right in the heart of Chelsea, this ground-floor apartment puts King's Road, Sloane Square, and the boutiques of Knightsbridge within easy reach – Harrods is a short walk away, and Hyde Park is under twenty minutes on foot. Inside, the apartment is calm and well-dressed, with a small yet smartly-styled kitchen and air conditioning to make it a comfortable base in every the season. Chelsea Physic Garden and the River Thames are both close enough for a leisurely morning wander, giving you the rare combination of a lively neighbourhood and pockets of real quiet.

Home truths:
* This is a compact studio apartment – well-suited for two, with room for a third on the sofa bed. If you're expecting separate living and sleeping areas, it's worth knowing the layout is open-plan.
* Your host can provide a cot for little ones upon request – just bring your own cot linen.
* While there are no in-unit laundry facilities here, you will find communal washing machines and dryers within the building.
* Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
* Parking here can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
