Description Rustling Leaves: London

Set opposite leafy Southwark Park, this home might feel like a secluded, albeit ultra luxurious, treehouse, but it’s actually located in a central area of buzzing London. The very definition of the phrase ‘best of both worlds’, this home puts you within very close distance to tourist attractions without compromising on the tranquillity of the space. When you’re after a bit of R&R, sink into the sofa with a good book, or meditate out on the balcony. Roll out your mat in the lounge after you’ve opened the bi-fold doors and practice yoga with only the rustling leaves and twittering birds for company.

Zipping around London is easily done by public transport or taxi and it shouldn’t take you more than twenty minutes to get to some of the best spots. See the Tower of London, or watch the guard change at Buckingham Palace. If you’re in the mood for some more luxury, cruise down the Thames with a glass of champagne. There are also plenty of galleries, museums, and restaurants to be enjoyed, but don’t forget to head down to the most quintessentially British place possible – the pub.
