The house

Three bedroom sleeping up to 6 guests, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, in South Kensington. Courtfield Road II is a three bedroom, three bathroom home in South Kensington. In this home’s laidback living areas, beautiful classic furnishings (the sitting room’s long table and scarlet armchairs are especially charming) sit alongside cool contemporary pieces – and many diverse artworks. The three bedrooms are decorated in the same elegant-but-unfussy fashion, and two give onto the patio, where stairs wind up to the rather lovely shared garden.

Close to this area’s bustling museum district, you’re also within easy reach of the Royal Albert Hall and Hyde Park. It’s just a two-minute walk to the nearest tube station, Gloucester Road. Between May and September a fan will be provided in all bedrooms.
