Vacation Rental Description

This spacious apartment occupies the top two floors of a georgian house in bloomsbury. Although the house was built in the 1790s, it has been newly refurbished and now boasts all the luxuries of a modern home, while retaining some original features including georgian wooden shutters at the windows and large rooms. Close to tube stations and buses and walking distance from many of london's finest attractions, this is an ideal vacation home for a family looking to explore london from a central base.

Covent garden with its street theatre, opera house and shopping piazza is an easy walk. Heading east, you can stroll around the city of london, europe's financial centre with its famous buildings (st paul's cathedral, the gherkin, tower of london, wren churches). Heading south over the pedestrian only millennium bridge, you will find tate modern gallery, shakespeare's globe theatre and it is a pleasant walk along the southbank to the london eye, towards westminster and a view of the houses of parliament from the south.
