About this property

House with private roof terrace a few mins walk from Tate Modern and River

LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION! Our bright, quirky, spacious two bedroom flat with roof terrace is in an amazing location with many major London sites (Tate Modern, Southbank, Borough Market, London Eye, St Paul's) within a short walk. For those who want to be in the middle of everything with easy access to the airports. Two bedrooms with a comfy corner sofa bed in the living room (**warning: our living room has a large atrium in ceiling so prepare to wake with the sun!). V. suitable for families. Our home is an awesome, spacious, airy, bright friendly London flat, with private roof terrace, WIFI, TV (Netflix and 100s of channels), dishwasher, washer, dryer and amenities. This is a perfect home-from-home. As you can see from the pictures, it's a large, beautiful 2-bedroom apartment very close to the Tate Modern. In the midst of all the arts and culture of the Southbank. You will not find anywhere closer to the middle of the Culture Mile than this flat! 2 Double beds, plus 1 corner sofa bed, Bath, shower, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven, hobs, dishwasher, microwave, fridge, freezer. Secure entry. Fitted Wardrobe in bedroom. Set over three floors. Maximum of six persons. Our home is for those who like being in the middle of things - this isn't a quiet country lane, this is the centre of London with people, culture, excitement, noises, and bright lights. It can be busy outside but the windows are sound insulated and most guests are surprised by how quiet the apartment is. If you're not used to living in a city centre you may want ear plugs. There are many hotels nearby, so there's plenty of footfall. At the weekends there is live jazz in the bar a few doors down. On a summer night you can dine on the private roof terrace and enjoy the jazz and the sounds of London - especially good if you have kids asleep downstairs and can't stay out late!

GREAT ACCOMMODATION IN AN EXCELLENT POSITION
We have just returned from a long weekend staying in this super little house right in the middle of London. Although the decor is a tad tired and would benefit from a refresh the position of the accommodation is perfect for anyone wishing to walk to a whole host of attractions in the centre of the city. Waterloo station is a few minutes walk, as is the Imperial War Museum and Tate Modern. London Bridge, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, Trafalgar Square, Whitehall, Westminster, The London Eye, The Mall, The Strand, The national Gallery, etc, etc; they are all well within walking distance. The house is right in the heart of Southwark, with its busy street life. The atmosphere is excellent and, to cap it all, there is a superb cafe around the back called "Over the Road" that does a brilliant breakfast! The accommodation is great, providing comfortable sleeping for 6, a well equipped kitchen, with microwave, conventional oven, kettle, dishwasher and washing machine, cutlery and crockery etc and there are plenty of books and board games if that's your bag, not to mention a large TV. Wifi is fast and the bathroom comes well equipped. Access to the building was very easy and communications with the owner were prompt and clear. The heating for both the accommodation and water was easy to control and the house was very cosy and comfortable at night time. Due to the time of year (December) we didn't make use of the roof terrace except to have a quick look but what an excellent place to enjoy a G&T on a warm evening; far removed from the hustle and bustle of the streets below. We had a great time and will most definitely stay there again if it's available the next time we are staying in London for a few days. I recommend it most highly.

Inner City Fun
This flat is in a vibrant location with great proximity to everything you could want for a stay in London, whether walking or using the tube/trains. You do need to be a little careful of the sets of stairs...steep.

About the host

Hosted by Ruth

Host profile image
We are a family wth 3 kids who now live in nearby Cambridge. This was our home for 10 years. We visit whenever we can to relive the days of our youth. Our kids love their second home in central London.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property for the roof terrace and it's bright and quirky style. We love being near the railway arches. It feels very urban which we love. If you are going to be in London you may as well be IN LONDON!

What makes this property unique

The location is the biggest advantage of this property. There is so much that you will want to see and do in London that is within walking distance. The immediate neighbourhood is very cool. Borough Market, Flatiron Square, Tate Modern, the South Bank. Gordon Ramsay's Union Cafe (interior is pictured) is directly across the street.
