The Hyde Park Mews Residence
Perks for the Parents
A traditional London mews property, bursting with colorful interiors, just a few minutes’ walk from Hyde Park. It sleeps 5. Parents will love this quirky home, located on a cute mews street full of picturesque cottage-style houses with very little through-traffic. There are 2 kingsize bedrooms to choose from, one of which has a mezzanine floor with a single bed; perfect for semi-sharing with kids who prefer to sleep with parents. Best of all, it’s well-placed to explore nearby Notting Hill and Marylebone as well as the sights around Hyde Park, including Buckingham Palace.
Why Kids Love it
Kids will appreciate the fun, colorful interiors here, which feel fresh and welcoming for families. The living room has a Playstation 4, plus there’s plenty of space to relax or watch a movie after busy days of sightseeing. Younger kids will love visiting the Princess Diana Memorial Playground in Hyde Park (the entrance to the park is 5 minutes’ walk and you’ll be on the correct side of the park to find it easily) or it’s a short journey by tube to visit London Zoo in Regents Park.
Things to Know
No smoking, pets or parties. To rent this property, the minimum age requirement is 25 years old. There are steps up to each floor so younger toddlers or babies might find this split-level home tricky to navigate. The single bed is accessed via a ladder so is not suitable for very young children. There are no stair gates. There are other apartments within the building on this corner plot.
About the Location
Nestled on a peaceful mews near Lancaster Gate, just north of Hyde Park, this is an unrivalled location to explore the city. Visit Marylebone’s weekend farmers markets and beautiful boutiques, or spend your days exploring the vast green spaces in Hyde Park, both of which are a short walk away. The nearest tube is Lancaster Gate or Paddington overground station, both of which are just a few minutes’ walk.
Accommodation Details
The apartment has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set over 3 floors. On the lower ground floor, you’ll find the primary bedroom, with a kingsize bed, handy desk area and a unique mezzanine floor accessed by a ladder with a single bed, ideal for sharing with 1 child. This room also has an ensuite bathroom with a shower-over-bathtub. Upstairs on the ground floor is the entrance, with the remaining rooms on the upper floor. Here, you’ll find the open plan kitchen and dining area, as well as the dual aspect living room. The second bedroom has an extra-long kingsize bed and a bathroom with a shower.
Style Notes
Colorful and fresh. This beautifully renovated former pub has been transformed into a stunning 2-bedroom home. The hosts have blended mid-century and contemporary styling to update this historic building into a modern, comfortable spot. We love the pretty turquoise kitchen cabinets, the beautiful original wooden windows and the eye-catching artwork in the living room.

Marylebone, London
Parks, zoos and a chic high street
Marylebone is a fantastic central location for a London vacation with kids. This upmarket district of the city is near green spaces and child-friendly cafes, the best butcher and fromagerie in town, Regents Park, Paddington Park and, for when mom needs a little shopping hit, the mecca that is Selfridges.
