The Landor Road Residence
Perks for the Parents
A child-friendly duplex in the heart of Clapham, south London with a play area in the garden and luxurious bathrooms. It sleeps 6. This is a home-from-home in every sense: the connected kitchen/dining/living area means you can keep an eye on kids on the main level, while the lower level connects to the fun kid-friendly garden. Must-sees for parents include the bustling Brixton Village market (around 15 minutes’ walk), filled with street-food style restaurants from around the world.
Why Kids Love it
While there are no toys or books for little ones, there’s a great garden with a children’s play area, slide and sandpit and parents can keep watch on the neighboring outdoor chairs. Kids will love exploring Clapham Common or the nearby Brockwell Park (half an hour’s walk or 10 minutes’ drive), which has a water-play playground, mini train ride and an outdoor swimming pool in the warmer months, the Brockwell Lido.
Things to Know
No smoking or parties. The lead guest must be at least 25 years old. All guests will receive a rental agreement prior to their stay which must be signed and submitted. The host may consider allowing pets by request. Please note the terrace which is seen in photos in the kitchen is not accessible but the window opens and a gate is in place for security. The living room includes a sofa bed, sleeping an extra 2 guests. The host can provide a high chair and stair gate if requested. There is a double sofabed in the living room for extra guests.
About the Location
This residence is located in Clapham, south London between Brixton, Stockwell and Clapham North subway stations. This is vibrant part of London, with lots of pubs, restaurants, markets, music venues and cinemas. It’s within walking distance of Clapham Common, a huge green space where families can play, yet the West End and South Bank is only 20 minutes away by subway. Heathrow airport is around 1 hour away by car or train.
Accommodation Details
The property has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set over 2 floors. There is a communal entrance to the ground floor (shared with the apartment above). The main level houses the kitchen and living areas, with the bedrooms downstairs on the basement level. The primary bedroom has a double bed (plus ensuite shower room) while the second bedroom has a double sofabed - both bedrooms have doors leading to the garden. The family bathroom has a shower-over-bathtub.
Style Notes
Period duplex. This pretty Victorian home is filled with period features, such as the bay windows at the front, ceiling coving and cottage-style windows at the back. This is complemented by modern interiors, including a super sleek bathroom and stylish bedrooms. We love the grey-blue kitchen cabinetry, the original wooden shutters in the dining room and the world travel-inspired artwork.

Clapham, London
Green spaces and gastro pubs
Set between Brixton and Battersea, Clapham is a lovely neighborhood just 20 minutes by public transport from the West End, with green spaces, gastro pubs and plenty of local families. Clapham Common is a great place to play, walk dogs and have a picnic in the summer; Battersea Power Station nearby hosts family-friendly events, and it’s just a short bus ride to Battersea Park for its zoo, playground, running tracks and boating pond. Brockwell Lido, nearby is great for a dip in the summer.
