Description A Royal Residence: London

If location is everything, then this colourful London home has it all. Within a thirty-minute walking radius, you'll find a host of landmarks – from Kensington Palace to the Natural History Museum. Plus, nearby Kensington High Street bursting with shops and eateries. Back home, the bold decor might not be for everyone, but we think it's perfect for families who want a city base with a bit of character. There's plenty of space to stretch out in the living area, and the kitchen has everything you need to whip up dinner. Though the second bedroom is a squeeze, children will love snuggling up in the bunk beds after sightseeing.

Home truths:
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. Speak to your host about parking options, though we think the best way to explore London is on foot. *This home is on the third floor of the building and there's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home. "While this home is unsuitable for children under 4 years old, babies may be allowed – speak with your host to request a travel cot. *The second bedroom is a bunk bed, which is only suitable for guests under sixteen. There is also minimal storage space in this room. *There is no dining table, but there is a kitchen bar with stools if you want to eat in.
