Description Steady, Set, Go: London

Overlooking Harrods, this three-bedroom apartment is a fantastic base for friends looking for a residential area with easy access to designer boutiques and luxury department stores. Situated in Knightsbridge, the property's amenities are as lavish as its surroundings. It even comes equipped with its own spacious roof terrace. Inside, the kitchen is the heart of the home, with skylights illuminating the space and creating a serene feel. The neighbourhood will also spoil you for choice regarding things to do, with Hyde Park and the V&A only an eight-minute stroll away (although in opposite directions). If you fancy leaving your West London bubble, Knightsbridge station is a six-minute walk away. The Piccadilly line can have you in Leicester Square in six minutes and Covent Garden a minute further. Whatever you do, don't delve back underground if you're visiting both – it's only a five-minute walk.
