About this property

Sophisticated yet cosy 2 bedroom Westminster apartment - convenient for Victoria

Situated on the upper ground floor (NO STAIRS) of a traditional Victorian building .Within 8 minutes walk of Victoria station and Gatwick Express and within the lively locality of the Pimlico village. A spacious tastefully furnished apartment with a contemporary twist. Perfect for visitors who love the idea of central London living but want a quiet safe and comfortable residential base to relax in at the end of the day. The main living area has 2 comfortable sofas – one of which converts to a double sofa bed with the facility to be screened off for further privacy at night.
For guest entertainment there is TV and free internet access, together with a well stocked library of novels art books and London tourist guides.
The fold away dining table easily seats 5 people for casual meals or elegant dining

Pimlico has all the major city amenities but with the advantage of a distinct village atmosphere. Locally there is a wide variety of supermarkets, restaurants, bars and specialist food shops.

Wonderful stay

We are a family of five, with three teens, and our stay was wonderful. Caroline was phenomenal with communication right from when I booked this accommodation until our arrival. John met us on the day of arrival. He toured us through the flat and they kindly provided snacks and breakfast food. Thank you for our stay. It was perfect!

Great location

We spent 5 nights in this comfortable apartment. The location was perfect for easy access to the tube into London and also on foot to the local shops and restaurants. The sleeping arrangements were perfect for accommodating myself, my brother and sister in law, and my 2 teenage nieces. There were some very welcoming touches from the host (wine, bread, butter, cereals, milk etc). I would highly recommend this apartment for a stress free stay in London.

Weekend in London for. 50 th celebration

From the first contact with Caroline I have been impressed. The booking process and contact prior to arrival was great. Once there John showed us all we needed to know. The property is 9 mins walk from Pimlico and 14 mins from Victoria. We used our debit cards on contactless around the underground- there is a daily cap. The property has 2 bedrooms and a small sofa bed in lounge There are two bathrooms one shower and one bathtub with shower The decorations are beautiful unsure if as suitable for young children but definitely for older persons Heating and water plentiful. Only suggestion would be if you need none allergy bedding to let Caroline know We would all most definitely return here it was perfect for access to the city and facilities available Thank you Caroline for letting your beautiful home to us.

Perfect flat in an eclectic neighbourhood

This is a great flat in a great location. We were welcomed by John and shown everything we needed to know about the flat. Everything we needed was already thought of by the owner including personal items in bathroom and a wonderful array of food including snacks and breakfast items for a full English breakfast. Flat is spotlessly clean and bed in main bedroom very comfortable. Only one glitch with wifi and owner was there in a flash to solve it. There is a great Italian deli 3 mins away that makes excellent coffee and food. Flat close to Pimlico and Victoria tube stations and No 24 bus which goes to every tourist place you ever wanted to go. We walked most of the time and it only takes 30 mins to get from the flat to the National Gallery/Covent Garden. Will definitely stay again next time in London. Caroline is an excellent hostess - thank you for making our stay so easy and fun

Lovely in every way - could not have asked for more.

Our family of five (parents with teens and tweens) stayed in Caroline's lovely Pimlico flat for a week during London's 2018 summer heat wave. It was the perfect base for our first explorations of London - an easy walk to many attractions, and well connected to transit. The flat was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The concierge John was thoughtful and went out of his way to make sure we got off on the right foot. The flat had little touches of luxury that helped it feel like a true home away from home. I'm surprised such a lovely place in such a perfect location was so affordable - lucky for us!

Excellent choice, very cosy, really nice area

This was first time using HomeAway and very impressed. The property was excellent, just great for our specific needs. Great size rooms, very clean and tidy. And the service from the owner is superb. Nice little touches make all the difference - food juice and milk in the fridge, breakfast cereals and even a loaf. Plus the wine and nibbles of course. All in a great wee area of London, nice a peaceful but close to everything you could need. This property defo gets my recommendation and I wouldn't hesitate to return.

Brilliant

This was the perfect location for our family of four. Communication with owner, Caroline, and John the concierge was straight forward, quick, and extremely helpful. John had the place set-up perfectly for us and the snacks and essentials on hand allowed us to grab a quick bite and head out to explore London. Very grateful.Access to restaurants, grocery store, taxis and the metro allowed us to explore and experience everything we wanted in London. When we come back to visit, we will be staying here again.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Caroline, the owner, was wonderful to communicate with; always responded quickly with answers to all of my questions. John, the concierge, met us upon arrival. Guided us to the great local restaurants, just a short walk from the apartment. The breakfast items and snacks waiting for us were perfect!

Super Lage. Wohnung mit Charme

Die Lage in Pimlico ist sehr ruhig und alles in guter Fußreichweite. Der Concierge John ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es gab ein Willkommenspaket, so dass man nicht gleich einkaufen musste. Für 3 bis 4 Leute zu empfehlen - danach wird es kuschelig. Die Wohnung ist gemütlich eingerichtet. Einziges kleines Manko sind fehlende Haken für Handtücher. Gerne wieder

Convenient location in lovely Central Neighborhood

Generously supplied with some basic staples and toiletries, this flat quickly feels like a home away from home. Both Pimlico and Victoria Station are walkable in about 7 to minutes. Bus is just 3 minutes away. The check in process was very smooth and allowed us to drop our bags prior to check in time. Grocery just a few blocks away. The bathrooms are a bit on the small size but met our needs. We were thankful there were two of them! Great and easy communication with host. I liked this flat so much I have already reserved it again for a future trip.
