Perks for the Parents

Escape the hustle and bustle of the city in this spacious north London home, complete with a fun family garden and beautiful interiors. It sleeps 7. Parents with a flair for design will love the eccentric decor and designer furnishings. The kitchen is perfect for cooking family meals and you can keep an eye on the kids while they play safely in the backyard. When you’re ready to explore the city, it’s a short subway ride into Kings Cross.

Why Kids Love it

The bedrooms are great fun for older kids and teens, with a cool bunk ladder and sports memorabilia on the walls. Kids of all ages will love the garden, which has a bunch of outdoor games, a climbing frame and table tennis table. There’s a park and playground just a few minutes away on foot, and it’s an easy trip to visit London Zoo (less than half an hour by subway).

Things to Know

No pets, parties or smoking.The lead guest must be at least 25 years old. All guests will receive a rental agreement prior to their stay which you are required to sign and submit. Spread over 3 floors, there are a fair few steps, including a few down to the kitchen. A dog is one of the family members who usually lives here, so this might not be the best fit for those with allergies.

About the Location

The house is located on a quiet residential street in well-connected Tufnell Park, with the subway station just minutes away, and the leafy trails of Hampstead Heath close by (15 minutes by train), where there is an outdoor swimming pool and beautiful views over the city. It’s just 20 minutes to Kings Cross by subway or around half an hour into the west end. Heathrow airport is around 1 hour away by car or train.

Accommodation Details

The property has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set over 3 floors. There’s a cozy living room downstairs, leading to a beautiful eat-in kitchen which is flooded with light from the skylight. Upstairs there’s a second living room, equipped with a handy desk and TV (plus film collection) and the primary bedroom with a queensize bed. On the top floor there’s 1 double room, 1 single room and 1 bunk room, ideal for kids. There’s a bathroom on each floor; both have bathtubs.

Style Notes

Print and pattern. Each room showcases a host of colorful motifs, diverse textures and patterned upholstery, complemented by classic wood flooring and timeless pastel walls. We love the Alpine-esque bathroom, with its wood floor and rustic-style paneling, the quirky roll-top bathtub and the beautiful wall of glass doors at the back of the kitchen.
