Description Charlton Charm: London

Sandwiched between Greenwich and Woolwich, Charlton's village-like atmosphere makes it a favourite for visitors wanting a quieter stay in London. Alongside proximity to pubs, shops, and parks, you'll be just a ten-minute walk from the train station – perfect for adventures around the capital. Back home, the open-plan living area boasts rustic character and original features. It's certainly a cosy place to unwind after sightseeing, and despite being small, the kitchen has all the essentials. Space is tight in the bedrooms, though, as one bed is against the wall, and the other is lofted. We think it'll suit families or couples who don't mind compact rooms.

Home truths:
*The bed in the main bedroom is pushed against the wall, so it's only accessible from one side. The bed in the second bedroom is lofted and has very low ceilings. It requires a ladder to access, so it may not be suitable for younger children. *Although the kitchen is compact, it has everything you need to rustle up meals. *Given the high street location, noise is to be expected. *You won't need a car in London, but there is free street parking nearby if you plan on driving. *This home is on the first floor without a lift. You'll be required to climb stairs to reach the entrance.
