Time travel back to the swinging psychedelic sixties with a stay in this beautifully curated apartment, located in the heart of Mayfair. Sitting within a building dating back to the 1730s, it’s the earliest surviving house in the area and was modernised in 1821 by Thomas Cubitt – the same master builder who constructed Buckingham Palace’s facade. Packed full of Art Nouveau and early Art Deco antiques – styles that signalled fashion and rebellion in the 1960s – there’s a definite touch of retro glamour in the living room, paired with vibrant pop art prints of the Beatles and swish velvet furnishings that effortlessly channel sixties cool. Kick back on the sofa with a glass of wine after a day of exploring or gather around the elegant dining table for a sophisticated soirée when you’re not out soaking up the lively atmosphere of Central London at night. The two bedrooms, meanwhile, are equally plush with their comfortable beds and extravagant colour schemes and each boasts a desk space should you need to catch up on work. Factor in the sleek bathroom with its rainfall shower, and you’ve got everything you need for a stylishly vintage stay. When it comes to exploring, trace the steps of the young, vibrant '60s socialites who worked in the area – like Terence Donovan, David Bailey, and John Cowan who had their studios on your street – or treat yourself to some retail therapy along Oxford Street, a six-minute walk away. You’re also a twelve-minute stroll from leafy Hyde Park, while Soho is thirteen minutes away on foot.
