Hot off the press, this apartment is a short stroll from Fleet Street. The Strand, the River Thames, the Royal Courts of Justice and the London School of Economics, along with the Tate Modern and the British Museum, are within walking distance too. Such an excellent location will mean this home will be subject to some city noise, but that's to be expected. Once a place for textile dying in the 15th century, this newly refurbished apartment, with a private lift, sits within an exclusive Victorian development. There's plenty of room for entertaining in the spacious open-plan living space, and if you need to work from home, the large dining table doubles up as a laptop workspace.

Home truths:
*There is a lift to access the apartment but inside there are two levels with stairs (no internal lift)
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
*The apartment is moments away from Chancery Lane Underground Station, with Holborn and Temple not much further afield. There's a Marks & Spencer food hall within walking distance too.
