The house

Three bedroom sleeping up to 6 guests, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, in Knightsbridge. Grand plan Like Knightsbridge itself, this four storey home is an elegant place. Inside, the hallway takes you past a toilet room and along to the kitchen – part classic, part contemporary – which leads through to the dining room. Here, an eight-seat table sits beneath a vaulted glass ceiling, and there’s a cosy sitting area (the TV concealed inside a dolls’ house) too.

From there, windows open onto a little mezzanine level terrace, then steps lead down to this home’s shared courtyard garden. Climbing the stairs (past another toilet room), you’ll come next to the sitting room. It’s all elegant button-back seats and delicate artworks and ornaments – there’s even a pair of trinket-filled birdcages either side of the fireplace. Above that is the master bedroom, which is decorated in soft blue and gold and has an old-school ensuite.

Then up again there’s the panelled main bathroom and a two pale-painted bedrooms. Between May and September a fan will be provided in all bedrooms.
