Walk to Hyde Park from This Sleek Mid-Century Mews House
Settle into this spacious 1950s Mews house less than 10 minutes walk to Hyde Park. Windows overlook cobblestone streets below. There’s something to be said about a vintage dwelling that can pull off contemporary furnishings, high ceilings, and walnut flooring.<br /><br />Staying in a mews house is a unique experience.  Originally these small cobbled central London streets were built to house stabling for the large houses on either side.  Over the years they have become some of the most desirable residences in London<br /><br />We’ve long been fans of 1950s design and chose this because it was built in the 1950s and designed to be easy to live in. <br /><br />Our house is warm and welcoming with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It's spotlessly clean with high ceilings, walnut flooring and iconic "Crittal" windows looking out onto the Mews. <br /><br />At 100 sqm, it's the perfect size for a London stay, compact but not small (by London standards) and equipped with everything you could wa
Paddington is a brilliant location for a London stay. Think of living in a Mews like living in a village with places like Paddington Station and Hyde Park all within reach. Though the home is quiet, Central London moves at full speed right outside. <br /><br />A London Mews is like a small community where everyone knows everyone else. So please don’t stay here if you are looking for complete privacy and anonymity; the Neighbourhood Watch is very efficient!
My partner, Jonathan and I live predominantly in Amsterdam.   We're very well travelled and have lived and worked around the world. 

I spent the last 25 years working in corporate life and about five years ago I decided it was time for a change.  

We're now trying to slow down a little so I am teaching wines and spirits to private students at our own WSET accredited school on the ground floor of the house. 

I also teach business and marketing strategy to MBA students. I also run a small consulting business specialising in African safaris and adventure travel. 

We're lucky enough to have a house in central London as well as a very old canal house in Amsterdam that we offer in part as a boutique apartment rental via our permit with the city. 

When we're in Amsterdam, we're happy to welcome guests to our other home in London. The London house is our own base when we're in the UK and is fully furnished for our own use.  

It feels like a real home because that's what it is.  We've lived here on and off for more than 20 years.   

And of course when we're in Amsterdam, I'm enjoying the chance to welcome guests to our home in the heart of one of the world's most beautiful and liveable cities
