London

The local area

A magical, multicultural metropolis that is steeped in history, immersed in culture, delightfully eccentric and undeniably hip; London never fails to entice.

At its heart you will find the borough of Marylebone. Just north of Oxford Street, the neighbourhood offers calm contrast to the thoroughfare it borders. Rich in culture and period charm, the prosperous enclave is one of the most desirable addresses in the capital and home to The Mews; your bolthole in the heart of the city.

Picturesque properties, chic boutiques and bustling bistros line its leafy streets. Its enchanting 'village-y' feel has long attracted an affluent bohemian crowd; Charles Dickens, John Lennon and T.S. Elliott are among its back catalogue of famed residents.

Character and Cultural History

Established by the Romans over two thousand years ago, London's colourful history echoes throughout the city, with ancient walls, bridges and place names still holding relevance today. All this adds to the strong sense of identity that permeates London, adding a depth and character to everything from famous old pubs to grand palaces. This is a city which saw invasion by the warrior queen Boudicca, the beheading of Anne Boleyn, Shakespeare's plays being performed in his lifetime, a gruesome plague, a devastating fire and the Great Exhibition, creating a tenacious, exuberant and eccentric place. London, in short, has a great personality.

Appeal, Affluence and Quiet Luxury

London is so full of iconic sights that even by taking a stroll along the river you'll be taking in some the most famous buildings and locations in the world, without even consciously planning a tour. Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, The Tower of London, The London Eye - the list of London must-sees is extensive, and enough to fill countless trips to this unique city. This is before you even start thinking about the world-class museums and galleries, which provide ample fascination whether you want to see a dinosaur or innovative contemporary art.

The most compelling thing about London is that many of its charms are unexpected. This is an endlessly explorable city, with hidden treasures waiting around every corner, and our Club Home in Marylebone will give you the perfect base from which to carve out your very own city experience.
