If you’re a theatre fan, you’ll love this stylish apartment we found tucked away down London’s bustling Shaftesbury Avenue. Just a stone’s throw from the Sondheim Theatre – home to Les Miserables since 2004 – this is the perfect setting for your next trip to the capital, boasting a generous selection of modern amenities and views over one of London’s busiest streets.

Start your day with a cup of tea before getting dressed and heading into the city. Whether this is your first visit, or you’ve been here hundreds of times, there’s always something new to discover, so start walking and see where the day takes you. Don’t worry about bringing a packed lunch – you can guarantee there’ll be a whole host of eateries wherever you end up, not to mention a huge selection of grocery stores for all your food shopping needs. Spend some time taking in London’s famous attractions – Buckingham Palace is just a twenty-two-minute walk away – and, when you’ve had your fill of being out and about, zip home on the Tube and put your feet up in front of the fire. Round your day off with another cup of tea – it’d be rude not to – then sink into bed and dream a dream of London.
