There’s not a thing out of place at this loft apartment set in the stunning borough of Twickenham. The made-for-socialising living space with dual-aspect windows is a delight to come home to. And there’s no need to quibble over the best rooms here – both bedrooms are well-styled and offer ample storage for those staying in London for a longer stint. The location is spot on, too, with Twickenham Train Station just a short walk away to journey into London Waterloo (20 minutes). But with the buzzy cafe-scene of Church Street and riverside pubs on your doorstep, we wouldn’t blame you for staying put.

Home truths:
*This apartment is on the first floor without a lift, so it might not suit guests with limited mobility.
*You'll share an entrance at this home.
*If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
