About this property

Chelsea Charm in Historic London Neighbourhood, with all Mod Cons!

Situated in Draycott Place, a charming period street in Old Chelsea which is steps away from Sloane Square and the King's Road. Walking distance to shops of Knightsbridge and the museums of South Kensington this apartment is owned by an interior designer.

The apartment features one master bedroom with a UK King/USA Queen bed (5' x 6' 8") with an ensuite bathroom with a tub (but no shower). There is a second bathroom with a full walk-in shower (but no tub). A second smaller guest room can be made up with either one or two single beds -- though it is tight with two beds (more suitable for kids to share). And, in a pinch, one can also sleep a fifth person on the living room sofa, the base of which is an upholstered mattress -- think of it as a day bed.

There is a very small patio at the rear which is suitable for die hard smokers, but there is no smoking inside the apartment. As the apartment is 'Lower Ground' there are steep narrow British stairs leading to the front door, so all guests must be agile!

The apartment has three TVs, Blu Ray & DVD multi region system, cable, wireless internet and a cosy dining nook off the living room, with a skylight overhead.

The nearest underground line is Sloane Square, but you are also within walking distance of South Kensington station. I prefer to take the number 19 or 22 bus to the Piccadilly Circus if I am headed to the West End -- ride on the top of the iconic double decker red London bus and get a birds eye view of all London has to offer.

A short walk from tube station through a beautiful neighborhood with great shopping and restaurants. The apartment is accessible just down some steep steps but it's worth it bc inside is an oasis of calm, artsy decor, comfortable spaces. Host is easily accessible, attentive details.

We had a wonderful stay here! The perfect location. We walked to many things but the underground was a quick 5 minute walk if needed. We felt extremely safe the whole time. Mark was kind enough to help us figure out a travel crib for our toddler and was extremely responsive whenever needed.

Beautiful property! It looks just like the pictures and has everything you might need for a comfortable stay. The neighborhood is lovely and quiet, but very close restaurants, shops and public transport. Mark was a great host, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book his property again.

My wife and I always love this neighborhood as we have stayed in the area on three separate occasions. This trip we brought our kids 18, 20 along with us. This was the perfect place for their first London experience. The host was so welcoming and the check in process was amazing. I would highly recommend this place for anyone wanting the pulse of the big city only a short walk away, yet the charm of a quiet neighborhood as well.

This is a great apartment and Mark is a superb host. The communication was always instantly happening in case we had any questions. We found some ice tea and milk together with Pepsi cans in the fridge-good after arrival. The location is wonderful and it is only a short walk to Sloane Square underground station. We loved staying there very much and will definitely return.

Mark’s flat was great and he was so accommodating when I’d asked about early check-in as our flight landed at 7am from the States. It’s in a fantastic location! 6-8minute walk to Sloane Tube station-so convenient! And King street for fun shopping is a couple of blocks away! His apartment has everything you can think of including a great washer & dryer. There is a very nice neighborhood bar-restaurant called The Chalk diagonal from his place. Great fun in the evenings for a few cocktails and to mingle with the locals. I’d love to stay here again!! Also it felt very safe.

Wonderful!

This was by far one of the best rental properties I’ve ever stayed in. Mark was an incredible host. There was fresh flowers and donuts for us when we arrived. There were 5 of us girls and we had an amazing time. Price was reasonable and in the best neighborhood. If you are looking for a cute and fun place to stay for your trip to London this is the perfect place!

About the host

Hosted by Mark Watty

Host profile image
I'm an interior designer based in London for many years but originally from Vancouver, Canada. I appreciate all London has to offer and my apartment in Chelsea is an ideal base close to all the attractions, shopping, restaurants and arts events. I have a wealth of local knowledge so if you have any questions please contact me!

Why they chose this property

I loved the period nature of this property. Looking down the street you can imagine you were in the 1880s. However I extensively (but sympathetically) renovated the interior so that has all the modern amenities one would require.
