Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

With an enviably central location just a short walk from Covent Garden, Holborn and St Paul’s, this sparkling apartment is just the ticket for those looking to make the most of London’s cultural and historic heart. Bathed in light from all sides, this home offers a stylish and comfortable stay that will give you a taste of luxe city living. We love the vibrant jewel tones in the decor, as well as the sociable open-plan layout of the bright main room. Kick back on the sofa with a glass of wine or gather around the chic dining table for a soirée at home when you’re not out sampling the local food scene. The three boutique bedrooms each boast large sash windows giving way to views of your Temple neighbourhood and vanity desks should you need to catch up on work – not to mention the beautifully dressed beds you’ll relish curling up in at the end of the night. Factor in the modern bathrooms with their rainfall showers and enticing tub, and you’ve got everything you need for a blissful break. When it comes to sightseeing nearby, you’re spoilt for choice. Explore the shops and restaurants in scenic Covent Garden (a thirteen-minute walk) or visit historic St Paul’s Cathedral, also a thirteen-minute stroll away. You’re also an eighteen-minute walk from both the British Museum and the bright lights of Leicester Square, while lively South Bank is a twenty-minute stroll away across iconic Waterloo Bridge.
