Contemporary London House on Edge of Zone 1, Newly Renovated

Situated on the edge of Zone 1, close to two tube stations and with frequent buses to Waterloo, Westminster and beyond, it is the perfect base for a vacation exploring London. Both tube stations are a 10-minute walk away, or take the bus and be at Tate Britain, Big Ben, or Westminster Abbey in 10-15 minutes! The house is situated in a safe, quiet, residential street and with space to spread out and relax (a scarce commodity in most London holiday apartments) it is perfect for families, couples, or larger groups. On quiet nights you can even hear Big Ben strike and the River Thames is just a short walk away. The new American Embassy is being built nearby, very close to the impressive MI6 building. Please note that this is a traditional British semi-detatched house, not an apartment. You occupy the whole house, so no noisy neighbours above, or below! There is both a large supermarket and a smaller express supermarket 5-minutes away, plus cafés, delis and restaurants, all within easy reach. There is also a gym nearby to work off the the calories. The property has just been totally refurbished and is supplied with everything you'll need to make your stay stress free and comfortable and cut down on your luggage. There is a small, but fully loaded kitchen with dishwasher, washer/dryer, microwave and fridge/freezer. Upstairs, are two large bedrooms, each with a king-sized bed and remote controlled ceiling fans, a smaller bedroom with full sized bunk bed and a family bathroom with bath tub and power shower. Downstairs there is a shower room, a lounge with double sofa bed, ceiling fan and flat screen TV and a dining room (seats 8) leading out to a patio garden. A baby cot and fold out child's bed can also be supplied on request. The house is centrally heated and double glazed. Linens, towels, bathrobes and 2 hair driers are supplied. The house sleeps 8 to 10 (8 in beds/sofabed, plus we can provide an extra fold out bed and cot) For relaxing at night, a selection of DVDs, CDs and Xbox 360 games are available (please ask, as we like to offer age appropriate films and games), as well as books and games.
