Romeo & Juliet Hammersmith, Greater London

Holiday Rental Description

Whether you're browsing boutiques, taking leafy walks in the park, or stopping off at a café for a cup of tea, everything is done with a touch of class and sophistication in Kensington – this Victorian townhouse being no different. Combining an excellent location with an elegant design, this terraced house will make the perfect spot for taking in the sights of Central London. It's just a ten-minute walk to Earl's Court tube station, connecting you to Covent Garden, King's Cross, and many more in under fifteen minutes. Inside, the style of the home feels classically English with a whimsical mix of traditional and contemporary influences, lots of regal patterns, colour and artwork – not forgetting the rustic fireplace feature and full-size chandeliers. Sprawl out and unwind with a good book across two light-filled living rooms, while the children are kept busy in the playroom downstairs. Though our favourite spot has to be the fairytale-like master bedroom, benefitting from dusty pink walls and ceramic flower adornments. Outside, the private patio area is the ideal place to kick evenings off with a glass of something bubbly. Eloquently curated inside and out, this unique home with all the trimmings offers a graceful stay on one of Kensington's most desirable garden squares.
