Pear Crumble

Holiday Rental Description

If your London itinerary is in need of world-class museums and galleries, this apartment in Bloomsbury is calling. Eight minutes on foot from the Wellcome Collection, six from the Museum of Egyptian Archaeology, and the same distance to the Brunei Gallery, your day-to-day schedule is already looking pretty packed. And when you add the restaurants of bars of Goodge Street into the mix, you’ve also got some busy nights ahead – thank goodness you can relax in this home.

Behind a Georgian facade in a Grade II listed building, the typical London brickwork and majestic front door make for a very inviting entrance. With a private lift up to your flat, it’s already starting to feel somewhat luxurious – and it’s sure to continue inside.

We love the high ceilings and enormous sash windows creating a truly regal air. While the decor in the living space is fairly modern and understated, it plays host to high-quality furniture, rich hardwood floors, and designer kitchen appliances – think Georgian elegance, but set firmly in the 21st century. Take a glass of champers out to peer over the wrought-iron railings of the balconette, making a toast to the start of your holiday.
