Perks for the Parents
An elegant ground floor apartment in family-friendly Herne Hill, south London with stylish interiors, a pretty garden. It sleeps 5. Parents will love the smart TV and record player in the living room, where you can relax with a vintage vinyl after bedtime. It’s also a great family kitchen, with a large marble island to huddle round and the nearby dining table for informal family meals. This is a great family-friendly neighborhood: explore nearby Brockwell Park, visit the Saturday farmers market or go for food and cocktails (after an open air swim) at the Brockwell Lido.
Why Kids Love it
Both the bedrooms have been soundproofed, so daytime naps will be undisturbed and teens can lay in as late as they like. Kids will enjoy a trip to nearby Brockwell Park (10 minutes’ walk) where there is an adventure playground, outdoor swimming pool and mini train ride at weekends. It’s also just 15 minutes’ walk to the Herne Hill Velodrome, where kids can visit for supervised sessions of cycling or scooting around the Olympic level cycling track.
Things to Know
No smoking, pets 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. Please note there are steps up to the entry door and split level steps within the property. The hosts can set up a double airbed in the living room on request. This area is not served by subway but the overground rail links are fast and efficient.
About the Location
The apartment is located in south London’s Herne Hill. It’s 10 minutes’ walk to both Herne Hill and North Dulwich train stations for access into central London (around 20-30 minutes). Herne Hill offers a range of family-friendly pubs, cafes, delis and a charming book shop. Popular Dulwich Village is 15 minutes’ walk. Heathrow airport is 1.5 hours away by train or car.
Accommodation Details
The property has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, all set on 1 floor. There is a thoughtfully-designed kitchen and dining room, as well as a separate cozy living room (with 2 cozy sofas, one of which can be converted into a single bed) which has doors out to the deck. The primary bedroom has a kingsize bed, while the second bedroom has a trundle bed, which can be set up as 2 singles or 2 kingsize bed. The bathroom features a walk-in shower and separate bathtub.
Style Notes
Blue mood. Pastel hues and antique furniture complement the period features of this historic home, while the host’s eclectic taste is evident in the dark midnight-blue walls, goose-print wallpaper and the contrasting yellow wardrobe. We love the painted green floorboards in the living room and bedroom, the gold-framed artwork and the ornamental dolls house.
