The Passing Cloud

Holiday Rental Description

For a quintessential London experience full of art and culture, it doesn’t get much better than staying next to South Kensington’s museum quarter – in fact, being right opposite. Less than a five-minute walk from the Natural History Museum and the V&A, this flat is an ideal base for history buffs and gallery-lovers. The exterior of the home itself is a striking example of period history and beautiful design. Roman-style columns, black-and-white chequered tiles, ornate iron railings, and cream brickwork are just some architectural features that are sure to draw you inside. And it only gets better. Boasting high ceilings and huge windows to match, we love the modern living space. Find quirky, colourful touches such as the stamp collection framed on the wall, and the red Persian rug. This lounge is the perfect spot for a warm Earl Grey in the morning. And for the evening, you’ve got a cute balconette where you can relax as you savour a gin and tonic. If you head down into the local area, find a bustling array of cafés, restaurants, and shops minutes from your front door. But with Gloucester Road tube only a seven-minute walk away, you can explore London to your heart’s content.
