Description The Chelsea Flower: London

Boasting a Chelsea postcode, this regal home has The Royal Borough’s landmarks within easy reach. The apartment is on the first floor of a walk-up building, so those with heavy luggage or limited mobility may want to look elsewhere. But, the interiors are traditional and elegant, with plenty of antique furnishings to admire. The private terrace is an idyllic spot for morning coffees and afternoon teas, although some of the city’s high tea hotspots are within striking distance. In terms of location, King's Road is just a short walk away, offering plenty of shopping and dining options.

Home truths:
*Parking is tricky in London. Instead of driving, explore on foot or take advantage of public transport. *While there isn't a washing machine here, your host offers recommendations for nearby laundrettes and laundry delivery services. *Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *The decor here is on the traditional side and won't suit guests who prefer contemporary design. *If you want to stock up on groceries, the closest supermarket is a three-minute away. *Your host may be able to provide a travel cot and high chair on request, with at least three days advance notice. *The patio looks a little tired and could do with a refresh.
