Description Follow the Moon: London

Housed in a period, Grade II listed building in the centre of Marylebone, this home combines a quintessentially English style – cast iron fireplaces and traditional bay windows – with brand new, modern finishes and mid-century furniture. There’s a 24-hour concierge for a bit of hotel-level luxury, but touches like handwoven rugs and a vintage record player with a curated selection of vinyl in the apartment keep it feeling like a home from home. The bespoke design from award-winning architects Morrow & Lorraine ensures a unique vibe. Marylebone is packed with museums, shops and restaurants and Oxford Street is just a 10-minute walk away (or 5-minute cycle on one of the complimentary bikes). If you want to keep up your gym regime, the apartment offers special rates for a series of health clubs in the area.

Home truths:
* At the time of our visit, there were some building works nearby causing some noise during the day – please check with your host if this will still be the case during your stay
* The fireplaces are only decorative
* This is a purpose-built home in a building with multiple similar units, so this is not a typical homestay experience
* There is no microwave or air conditioning in this home
