Provista Hammersmith, Greater London

Holiday Rental Description

You might think that minimalism is easy to get right, but it's not just a case of taking everything away and admiring the emptiness. This apartment in West London shows you how it should be done. The stark white walls and floorboards create a soothing ambience, but it also means that the carefully selected artwork, houseplants and statement furnishings — including an alien-looking chair in the bedroom by designer Tom Dixon — really stand out. Overall, it manages to strike the sought-for balance between artistic coherence and somewhere you can actually feel at home within. The outside of the building is traditionally pretty and part of a charming crescent sat opposite the entrance to Brompton Cemetery, one of the 'Magnificent Seven' built in the nineteenth century. Further afield, there are boutiques and upmarket restaurants on the nearby King's Road, which can be reached in under twenty minutes on foot. For direct trains to central London, Earl's Court underground station is just round the corner, getting you into the city in just fifteen minutes.

Home truths:
*This home is on the first floor of the building and there's no lift, so it might not be suitable for guests with limited mobility
*There's no parking space with this homes but you can make use of London's excellent public transport system - Earl's Court Underground station is two minutes' walk away and can get you into Piccadilly Circus in twenty minutes; West Brompton train station is a two-minute walk away
