The Kensingtonian

Situated on the ever appealing Kensington High Street, this two-bedroom apartment marries a premium location with good space and home comforts. Just a stone's throw from the Design Museum and the verdant squirrel haven of Holland Park, guests will have plenty to explore in the affluent local area, while the nearby District and Circle Line station offers excellent underground routes around Central London. While the bathroom is located across the apartment from the bedrooms, meaning you might have to skitter through the living room after your shower, there's lots to like about this brightly lit home that's ideal for couples on a double date city break.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area.
*Given the home's proximity to a busy road, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
*You won't find an oven here – though there is a stove. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
*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.
