The Best Family Homes for the Half-Term Holidays

London is packed full of fun things to do as a family: from days out at museums, parks and festivals, to evenings spent at the theatre or in one of the capital’s superb restaurants. Our family homes provide the perfect base from which to explore the many attractions of the city. Here are five of our favourites:

Lovely Chelsea Home

An airy two-bedroom home set within a purpose-built residence in Fulham. This comfortable abode has two double bedrooms, one bathroom, and an attractive living room with unique artwork and wooden floors. Ideally located with easy access to public transport, and close to many local restaurants, bars, and shops, this lovely family home will ensure a relaxing stay in the heart of South West London.

Immaculate Designer Home in Wandsworth

A stylish home that is simply ideal for families. With four bedrooms and three bathrooms, this stunning terraced house is close to the charming Old York Road and near a train station that provides quick access to central London. Full of amenities that are both practical and appealing (smart TV, washer/dryer, dishwasher, etc.), this luxurious Wandsworth home provides a comfortable base for a city break – whether your family wishes to stay in or explore the great outdoors!

Luxurious Wandsworth Home

Located in the popular Southfields area of Wandsworth, this outstanding residence offers everything a family could need for a memorable vacation. Comfortable, stylish, and roomy, the home benefits from two double bedrooms and two bathrooms, and is situated within a Victorian property that has recently been refurbished to the highest standard. With plenty of mod cons, and close to the popular Southside shopping centre (which boasts restaurants, shops and a cinema), this luxurious two-bedroom maisonette is one of our favourite family homes.

Spacious Home in Queen’s Park

Close to Kensal Green, within easy walking distance of trendy Chamberlayne Road and Kensal Rise, this characterful three-bedroom residence is a great base for parents with children. The large living spaces – such as the roomy kitchen/diner and paved patio garden – make it an ideal spot for spending time in as a family or entertaining friends; and yet the attractions of central London are just a short tube ride away. The perfect home away from home.

Stylish Wandsworth Penthouse

Experience the city as never before with a stay at our spectacular South London penthouse. Situated at the top of a new building, this apartment is a stone’s throw from the bustling streets of Wandsworth, and affords exquisite views across London; yet, once inside, the atmosphere is calm and tranquil thanks to the large windows and spacious rooms. With three double-bedrooms and an open-plan kitchen/living room, this family home offers the perfect combination of style and comfort.
