This cottage is ten minutes on foot from Clapham Junction and twenty from Battersea Park. Though it's not in the thick of central London, you'll still be incredibly well-connected here – trains can whisk you away to Victoria, Waterloo, or London Bridge in about ten minutes. Back home, we're smitten with the cosy living space, from the characterful wooden shutters to the host's collection of well-thumbed books. The kitchen has all the essentials to whip up dinner – best enjoyed in the bay window – and the small garden is the icing on the cake. It has sundowners written all over it – the perfect end to a day spent sightseeing.
