Deck & Grove Park

A private garden with a decked terrace is a rarity for a South East London apartment, and this ground-floor home makes the most of it – the living area spills directly outside, making warm afternoons feel easy. Two bathrooms mean mornings run smoothly whether you're travelling as a family or with friends, and the kitchen is well set up for longer stays. Grove Park sits among some of South London's leafier stretches, with open green space close at hand – a quieter base than many parts of the city, without feeling too remote.

Home truths:
* You'll have one off-street parking space included with the apartment – useful in this part of South East London where on-street parking can be limited.
* The smart TV is ready to use, but you'll need your own Netflix, Disney+ or other streaming log-ins to watch anything.
* 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.
* Starter toiletries are provided. However, you will need to stock up on other essentials such as coffee and tea, as these are not included.
* 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.
