Description The Hideaway: Paris

Nestled at the bottom of a private cul-de-sac, sits this authentic little home – and this one's a real charmer. Stepping in to look around, you'll be struck by the rustic interiors that make the space feel homely and warming, with its exposed wooden beams and an impressive stone archway. Whip up a croque madame in the country-house style kitchen – complete with a light-filled dining area that we really loved. With the bedroom at the back of the apartment through an industrial-esque sliding door, the area is quiet and cosy – the modern panelled windows divide the space up in elegant fashion. Inside, there's plenty of characterful touches, including a glamorous feature necklace. Beyond this traditional treasure, you'll find a friendly locale and neighbourhood that's within a twenty-minute stroll from the historic Notre Dame Cathedral. Inside and out, this spot is a natural beauty.
