Instant booking rentals can be booked directly within a few minutes, much like you book a hotel room on the internet. Only our highest quality rentals are chosen to be featured in our instant booking selection.
To book rentals which aren't instant booking (i.e. "on request"), you need to send a booking enquiry to confirm availability with the owner first before booking
To book "on request" rentals, you need to send a booking enquiry to confirm availability with the owner before booking. You will receive the owner's answer to your enquiry directly by email.
We advise sending enquiries to the 3 or 4 "on request" rentals that interest you most. As soon as you receive a positive answer, you should book immediately; waiting for other replies increases the chances that available rentals will be booked by someone else.

Description of this holiday apartment
Reece Mews is a quiet, traditional style Victorian cobbled street, tucked away off the Old Brompton Road in the ‘French Quarter’ of London right in the heart of South Kensington, famous for its French Lysee School and little Boulangerie style cafes. The Mews is famous for its classic car showrooms which still exist today. It is approximately 2 minutes walk from South Kensington Tube Station (Piccadilly direct from Heathrow Airport, Circle & District lines) which is also a transport hub for buses to all directions. From the house you are within 15 minutes walk of Knightsbridge to the east, where you pass the flamboyant Italianate Brompton Oratory Church and you can shop at the world renowned store Harrods and lunch at Harvey Nicholls. Just beyond Knightsbridge is Buckingham Palace and Piccadilly.

Reviews for this holiday apartment
We stayed for two weeks at 4 Reece Mews and were delighted with the property, as well as with the friendliness of Alison and Don. I frequently rent website properties, and Reece Mews is the nicest place I have ever stayed in London. The Mews itself is charming and quiet even though cars can drive through -- there is seldom much traffic. The top floor of the property, with the kitchen and sitting room, is flooded with light. Everything in the kitchen is new and highly functional, with decent equipment and lots of counter space. The living room is pretty, airy, comfortable. The house is tastefully decorated and fresh looking throughout. The master bedroom is gorgeous, the bed is firm, and the cupboard space enormous. The other two bedrooms, while small, are perfectly adequate. For a bathroom freak like me, one of the main strengths of this property is that it has no less than THREE gleaming bathrooms, with great showers. If you wanted to fill the place up (we were only four) this would be a major feature. And the location! It's in the middle of "little France," with some excellent cheese, bread, and fish shops, and some not- ridiculously-pricey restaurants. Everything you need is within walking distance: 3 minutes to South Kensington station (which has 3 useful tube lines); 3 minutes to the V & A (we just popped in there whenever we felt like it); and about 7 minutes to a big Waitrose supermarket (there's a little Tesco just at the top of the mews for late night emergencies, though you wouldn't want to eat out of it). Charm, comfort, location: what more could you want? I hope we'll be back: thank you Alison, for all your help.

We really enjoyed this comfortable home in a lovely part of London. The apartment was well appointed with nice linens, dishes, etc. and had ample sleeping even for our large family of 7. A very quick walk to the S. Kensington Tube -- and handy grocers, fish markets, ice cream and cafes just out the door. A short walk to many great museums. The owner, Alison, was extremely helpful and made every effort to ensure our stay was pleasant.

We had a fabulous time at 4 Reece Mews. The location is close to the South Kensington tube stop, as well as groceries, restaurants and a bustling neighborhood. The flat itself was great - very nicely decorated, in good/excellent condition, comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, easy to use washer/dryer. Owners were accessible and helpful. We'll be back.
