Located just a little outside of Central London (but still within easy metro distance) this Airbnb is great for those looking for something a little quieter. It’s on a tree-lined street that’s near a number of bakeries and cafes, with a fenced-in backyard for more privacy. A stained glass window and baby blue window nook are design features to bookmark.
