Perks for the Parents

A 2-bedroom cottage in Knightsbridge with traditional features, close to the city’s best museums and shopping streets. It sleeps 4. Parents will love this desirable spot in the heart of Chelsea, where you can walk to the Kings Road for some of the city’s best eateries, shops and restaurants. With so much on your doorstep you won’t need to cook here and parents will love wandering through the boutiques and cafes of Walton Street and Fulham Road, just around the corner as well as the luxury stores of Sloane Street, just 10 minutes away on foot.

Why Kids Love it

While this home doesn’t have toys or books for little kids, it’s in a great area for families, just a short walk away from South Kensington museums. Kids will love visiting the Natural History Museum, Science Museum or V&A (around 10 minutes’ walk) or it’s a 10-minute walk south to a local playground (St Luke’s). Little kids and toddlers will love the exploration zones at the National Army Museum (15 minutes’ walk) or you can jump on the tube to visit Hyde Park (15 minutes) for the best playgrounds, green spaces and more.

Things to Know

This home is spread over three floors with no internal elevator. The kitchen in this home is small, and best suited for cooking breakfast and lunch rather than large dinners. This home doesn't have air conditioning. Between June and September, we'll place fans in each bedroom. Please let us know if you'd like fans outside the summer period. This is a much loved family home and shows some signs of wear and tear. Complimentary Lovevery Play Kit for kids (0-4yrs) during your stay T&C's apply.

About the Location

You're in a great location here - within walking distance of all the shops and eateries of King's Road, and only an 8-minute walk from South Kensington tube station. Take a trip to Duke of York’s square for weekend coffee and pastries while the kids play in the pedestrianzed area outside The Saatchi Gallery, explore Hyde Park and Royal Albert Hall, or spend the day visiting the tourist attractions around Buckingham Palace - all within 15 minutes by tube.

Accommodation Details

The apartment has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set over 3 floors. At entrance level you’ll find a living room and a kitchen with a small dining table. Upstairs is the primary bedroom, with kingsize bed and ensuite bathroom (with shower-over-bath combo). On the first level down you’ll find a twin room ideal for kids, as well as a shower room and an office with access to a little patio.

Style Notes

English Tradition. This home's welcoming sitting room is decorated with delicate prints and oil paintings, and the plump sofas give the feeling of a country home in London. The classic design of both bedrooms continue the theme of cosy comfort throughout the home. We love the large original windows, the charming country-style textiles and the classic Georgian exterior, typical of Chelsea’s terraced streets.

Knightsbridge, London

Harrods, Hyde Park and the Household Cavalry

Known for its high end shopping streets, Knightsbridge is also great for kids, with Hyde Park a stone’s throw away and plenty of excellent playgrounds and cafes to discover. If you’re in the area at 10.30am daily, look out for the household cavalry galloping towards Buckingham Palace for the changing of the guard ceremony. Toy Kingdom in Harrods is another must-see, as are Kensington’s many world-class museums; on a Sunday, you can join a mass family rollerskate group at Hyde Park Corner.
