William Mews, Knightsbridge

Description

Just a short distance from the majesty of Hyde Park and close to the elegant stores of Knightsbridge, William Mews is an impossibly charming three-bedroom mews house that comfortably sleeps up to six guests. Spread across three levels, this sophisticated London home ticks all the right boxes for family vacations in the heart of one of London’s most desirable neighbourhoods.

Knightsbridge is full of character. The green and gold livery of the Harrods storefront or the trendy buzz of Harvey Nichols tempts you in for some serious retail therapy. The green spaces of Hyde Park offer everything from horse riding to swimming in the Serpentine Lido. Sunday morning is the time to visit ‘Speaker’s Corner’ for some lively debate. For evening meals, ask your dedicated concierge to book a table at any of the exclusive restaurants in Belgravia and Mayfair, including Gordon Ramsay’s Pétrus or the Lanesborough Grill. Then hop into a taxi for the short ride to the West End theatres of Drury Lane and Covent Garden.

William Mews captures that sublime West End atmosphere and adds a comfortable, family-friendly ambience. The entrance level takes you straight into the bright, airy sitting room, filled with an eclectic mix of artworks. It sets the tone for the rest of the house with beautiful wallpapers adorning every room. The kitchen is decorated in a delightful powder blue and has every appliance you need. A cloakroom completes the entrance level and a vintage winding staircase takes you up to the second level.

Here, you’ll find the peaceful primary suite with a sumptuous super king-size bed and an attractive ensuite bathroom with bold chequerboard tiles and a fitted bath. A guest bedroom is also located on the second floor, with a double bed and antique furniture that adds to the boutique character. The second guest bedroom featuring a king-sized bed and separate bathroom completes the third-level layout.

William Mews is ideally situated for exploring the parks of London, with Hyde Park and St James Park just a few steps away. For dining and deli shopping, Motcomb Street is close by, as are the attractions of Buckingham Palace and The Mall. To explore the rest of London, Knightsbridge Underground Station is just a few minutes’ walk, making William Mews the perfect base for discovering the capital’s most popular tourist spots.
