Metafort \ Design Bed & Breakfast

Having recently visited Metafort, I have to say that this beautiful space completely encapsulates what I see as 'The Perfect hideaway'. A boutique property with 5 rooms and an apartment, a unique location, all designed with an incredible aesthetic that is both minimal and thoughtful, with accents of color and touches that make it feel like home. But the clincher is that it is run by an amazing couple that literally built it from the ground up, salvaging a 17th century house and creating both a space and experience that leaves you wanting more. I already want to go back...

40 Winks \ "Micro-Boutique Hotel"

We recently stayed at this 4 story, 300 year old Queen Ann House on Mile End Road in trendy East London. It has been lovingly restored and transformed into an extraordinary and slightly eccentric world by acclaimed interior designer David Carter. Now a favorite for fashion shoots and stylish, in-the-know visitors looking for somewhere a little bit different to stay in the capital, the two bedrooms tend to be booked out months in advance.
