A Home to Relax and Unwind

Step through the door and you will immediately notice that Ideal Home and Cottage is no ordinary serviced apartment. The interiors have been designed with real personality, combining deep jewel tones of purple, rich burgundy, and bold crimson with elegant chandeliers overhead, creating a warm and indulgent atmosphere that feels more boutique hotel than short-let flat. Room-darkening blinds in both bedrooms ensure a restful night`s sleep regardless of the hour, while thoughtful finishing touches throughout — from freshly laid towels on arrival to a kitchen stocked with tea and coffee — mean you can settle in straight away without needing to make a supermarket run.

The generous dining space has been styled beautifully for group gatherings, with a candlelit table set for six, wine glasses ready to pour, and a wall-mounted flat-screen TV nearby, making it just as fitting for a relaxed group dinner as it is for a working evening meal. Contractors and business travellers will also appreciate the dedicated desk in the second bedroom, providing a private and practical workspace after a long day on site.


The Layout

The apartment is arranged as a well-planned, fully self-contained unit that accommodates up to seven guests comfortably.

Bedroom 1
A generously sized twin room featuring two double beds, dressed in rich jewel-toned linens with plush pillows and an elegant chandelier above. Room-darkening blinds, clothing storage, and clothes hangers are all provided, ensuring guests have everything they need to settle in properly.

Bedroom 2
A versatile twin room configured with one double bed and one single bed, styled with vibrant, bold tones that give the room an energetic and welcoming character. This room benefits from its own full-size refrigerator, a flat-screen TV, and a dedicated desk, making it particularly well suited to longer stays and business travellers who need a private, functional space.

Dining Area
The dining space is styled for group use and seats six guests at a wooden dining table, complete with wine glasses, candles, and red place settings that set the tone for a proper shared meal. A wall-mounted flat-screen Smart TV with streaming services is positioned alongside, allowing guests to dine in style while watching their favourite shows.

Kitchen
The compact but well-equipped kitchenette features a hob, microwave, toaster, hot water kettle, refrigerator, freezer, cooking basics, dishes and silverware, and wine glasses. Kitchen consumables including tea and coffee are provided, so your first morning is already taken care of. An in-unit washing machine makes the apartment particularly practical for longer visits or contractor stays.

Bathroom
The bathroom features a sparkling glass-enclosed corner power shower with chrome fittings and a mirrored cabinet. The shelving is fully stocked with guest toiletries including shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, and body soap, and a hair dryer is also available, meaning there is genuinely no need to pack the essentials.

Garden Views
The apartment looks out onto pleasant garden views, providing a calm and green outlook that adds to the peaceful feel of the property.
