Hyde Park Place United Kingdom
Holiday Home Rental Description
Hyde Park Place is a simply majestic, grand home with regal touches and rich, opulent style nestled within one of the most premium parts of London, in the heart of the Royal borough, fittingly!
This unique home of commanding proportions offers unapologetic decadence and indulgently decorative interiors, fit for royalty! With an unparalleled central location, guests can enjoy a sumptuous, tranquil home, with all that the capital can offer right on its doorstep.
The living space is a breathtaking vision of deep crimson and ornate opulence; extravagantly plush fabrics and gilded and polished brass abound. Brimming with antiques and oil paintings, this home is a far cry from an anonymous or sterile hotel room. Vivaciously deep pucks, burgundies and gold are offset by statues, polished solid wood furnishings and dazzling chandeliers.
There is a second, mezzanine level reception room, which offers a “snug” like feel, with playful red leather seating and television, jostling alongside classic and contemporary art, this home has abundant quirky and eccentric hints at personality and designer verve!
The dining room is executed with characteristic formality, yet is utterly charming in its decorative appeal. Flamboyant in style, again with crimsons and gold alongside antiques and ornamentation, guests can enjoy colourful social get-togethers here.
In contrast, the kitchen is a sleek and contemporary space, finished with a slick, steely grey and handle-less units. Minimal, modern and understated, this is every inch the urbanite’s pied-à-terre kitchen; fitted with top-grade appliances and chic wall tiles within the muted palette.
Hyde Park Place accommodates seven to eight guests across four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The bedrooms are breathtakingly resplendent, decked out in candy-toned pastels, buttercup yellow, jade green and pink candy stripes! Gorgeous antique furnishings that would not be out of place in Versailles blend with sumptuous proportions and abundant natural day light. The glamorous and palatial tone is maintained: rich silks, ruched curtains, upholstered headboard.
This tranquil home offers all the comforts of a privately occupied home, oozing glamorous style and effervescence. The pièce de resistance is a wonderfully ornate balcony, set amid trees and rooftops, offering a charming bistro-style table set; ideal for morning coffee as the city wakes up, or an evening glass of wine as the sun softens.
Hyde Park Place is an enchanting home, bursting with decorative verve and unique, baroque touches, nestled in one of the most upmarket addresses in the capital, offering a lavish yet home-like environment for guests to enjoy all that metropolitan living has to offer.Hyde Park Gate is a prestigious address, on the very fringe of the wonderful and varied Hyde park. This is one of the most sought-after addresses in London, offering a secluded and tranquil cul-de-sac while having within walking distance a plethora of world-class amenities, including The Royal Albert Hall, Imperial College, The Natural History Museum and the V&A museum.
High Street Kensington and Gloucester Road tubes are both within walking distance.
Hyde Park itself ranges from elegant gardens, windswept lake, avenues of rollerbladers, and interesting afternoon’s worth of visits such as The Serpentine Gallery, which is a bite-sized gallery showcasing contemporary art, and The Mess, a well-heeled spot for a smart brunch!
The vibrant, eclectic and arty Notting Hill, with the famous, world’s oldest antique street market at Portobello Road, is a short distance away.
As well as the world-renowned museums, there are many, fascinating and intriguing lesser-known museums and galleries. The Design Museum is set in a grade ll listed building in Kensington High Street; the building has been transformed by a team led by the well-known architect John Pawson – from fashion to furniture, from product to graphic design, this is an international designers’ hub.
Eighteen Stafford Terrace is just a few moments walk away, for a virtually untouched and immaculately preserved slice of Victorian living, one of the only genuine Victorian townhouses remaining, it has become something of a hidden national treasure.
Located on the edge of Holland Park, Leighton House Museum is one of the most opulent museums in London; the ornate nineteenth-century home of Lord Leighton is decorated with domed ceilings, gilded walls, flamboyant artwork and fountains. This is a small scale museum which makes for a nice afternoon’s activity, whilst Holland Park itself is small, little known by tourists, and offers something of a secret escape into woodlands, wild ponds and pavilions; set in one of London’s most elegant areas, it makes for a romantic stroll or day out as a family.
High Street Kensington is just moments away, which offers a wide array of high street boutiques and a flagship Whole Foods store, and for a treat, The Orangery at Kensington Palace Gardens offers an unapologetically decadent and elegant dining experience!
South Kensington, a short distance away, is busting and brimming with boutiques and a range of eateries, whilst the department stores of Knightsbridge are not more than a short bus ride away, for a tea in Harrods, or sushi in Harvey Nichols after a spot of shopping!
