Neal's Rooftop Retreat

You would be hard-pressed to find a better location for exploring London than from this unique home. Echoing the bright colours of vibrant Neal’s Yard – less than a one-minute walk away – this apartment in the heart of Covent Garden is a rainbow of characterful design elements and carefully curated art. You’ll instantly be struck by the beautiful glass-enclosed staircase that leads up to a skylight. Open up the hatch and step out onto your own private roof terrace overlooking Central London. Whether you’re starting mornings off here over coffee and locally bought pastries, or ending the night with a glass of wine and some artisan cheese from Neal’s Yard Dairy, you’ll love whiling away the hours in this serene outdoor haven. Elsewhere in the home, your host has ensured every detail maximises your relaxation and comfort, providing Neal’s Yard toiletries, luxurious bedding and bespoke decor (we love the custom tiling in the bathroom). When you’re not chilling out in your rooftop pad, go out and explore your surroundings. The boutique and theatre-lined Seven Dials is just outside your doorstep, while cobbled Covent Garden is a five-minute walk away. Leicester Square, Chinatown and Soho are all within a ten-minute walk away too, offering some of the city’s most celebrated restaurants, shops and bars.


Home truths:
*There are three flights of stairs to reach this home and there are stairs leading up to the rooftop terrace, so it's less suited to those with limited mobility or guests bringing lots of luggage
*The coffee table can be raised to form a proper dining table as well
* Due to the central location, some street noise can be heard, but the bedroom is quiet since it is at the back of the home
*A cot and a high chair are available – just ask the host when booking
*Please be mindful of the neighbours by keeping noise levels to a minimum
