First things first. South Kensington is really lovely. Lots of private garden squares and when we were there had the annual open day of these squares. Wonderful ! Great places to eat and great produce to buy inc Sainsbury at Gloucester station and Moxan for fish. Easy access to the tube. Great wine shop and then the museums - V &. A, natural history museum and Harrods which is really a bit like a museum.
The apartment was lovely. Perhaps a bit idiosyncratic with kitchen downstairs and dining upstairs using a tight spiral staircase. Take care carrying cases. The wc comes straight off the kitchen which would not be allowed in Australia but presumably is fine in London but these were very minor issues. Would stay here again with enthusiasm
