Plum Guide Star is like the Michelin Star for Vacation Rentals. This home has been tested by hospitality experts against 150 criteria including: great location, great beds, great living room, great host, great restaurants, great bars, great vibes and great value. Only 1 in every 100 homes is given this award, so you can be confident that this is one of London's best holiday homes.
LOCATION - The apartment is situated in a beautiful tree lined Regency terrace in the heart of London's most exclusive Knightsbridge - Step out of the flat and find all that London has to offer: theatre, history, culture, fine dining, shopping and the world famous Hyde Park. Take a quick trip to Harrods or venture a bit further to Kensington or Buckingham Palaces.
The flat is smack bang in the middle of the smartest boutiques and department stores around, from Harvey Nichols to Harrods. And when you've shopped to your heart's content, head down the road to museum mile, where the delights of the V&A and the Natural History Museum await, or amble north for a scenic walk around the Serpentine.
Beauchamp Place is just around the corner with its fabulous choice of restaurants and boutiques.
THE SPACE - With regards to the design, we have tried to give the apartment as much personality as possible whilst appealing to a broad range of tastes. The design is bright and breezy, clean and uncluttered. It's eclectic, modern and Midcentury. There are also plenty of interesting art works on display to capture your interest.
But it's not all about style, comfort is also key for our guests. So in the spacious living room there is a large comfy sofa where you can put your feet up in the evenings, kick back and relax! The drawing room is also home to the dining area, which is the perfect spot to enjoy some local delicacies.
Top tip: try out the magnificent food halls in Harrods (steps away) - you will be sure to take home some edible delights from here!
If cooking a gourmet meal at home is more your thing, then rest assured the kitchen will have everything you need in it including oven, induction hob, microwave, toaster, kettle, dishwasher, fridge/freezer and a Nespresso coffee machine.
We provide all the basic condiments, and as an added extra we make sure that there is also always plenty of tea and sugar so that you can make yourself a traditional British cuppa in the morning! And so you don't need to rush out to the shops after a long journey, we provide you with a welcome pack of essential snacks. We really want to ensure that you have a comfortable stay here in London!
There are two bedrooms in the house. The master bedroom has a super king sized bed (mattress size is L2m x W1.8m) and a stylish private conservatory space for enjoying tea, reading or dressing.
The second bedroom has a double bed (mattress size is W1.4m x L1.9m) and is located at the back of the flat with a luxurious walk-in shower. Both bedrooms are uniquely designed so you get a feeling of luxury staying here.
Block-out curtains and blinds ensure you don't get woken up too early by the light. There is also plenty of storage space for guests to store all their belongings.
The property also benefits from 2 ensuite bathrooms. Both bathrooms are bright and contemporary in style and one has a bath (which really is a real treat in central London!) and another a walk-in shower. The bathrooms will always come stocked with plenty of white fluffy towels and all the essential toiletries such as shampoo, shower gel and hand soap that you need to ensure that you have a comfortable stay in London.
Guest access
The apartment has its own private entrance. The apartment is on the lower ground floor. Whilst I can definitely say that this is not your typical basement apartment as the rooms are so spacious and bright, there are a few outdoor stairs down to the apartment which may make it unsuitable for people with mobility issues.
