At Somerset you’ll sense the shimmering stillness of sun-soaked plains without leaving the yellow, velvet sofa. Catch a glimpse of the exotic, from the case of beautiful butterflies to the contrasting modern and traditional African artworks. Pull a crisp white from the wine cooler in the state-of-the-art kitchen and soak off the day's dust in the paneled vinyl of the roll top tub. Refreshed and ready to get back on the trail? Notting Hill has watering holes aplenty among the boutique shops of Clarendon Cross and Westbourne Grove, and Portobello Road is teeming with life. Hyde Park's wide open spaces are just down the road – pick up your pack and explore.

The owner built this home in his own image. His sports paraphernalia adorn the walls and his homage to big game hunting fills each room. Combine this with a patina of Neo-Victorian elegance and you have the uniquely opulent home that is Somerset.

In amongst the leather and rough-hewn wood, a less serious side to your home lies in wait. The single bedroom doubles as a play room where you can observe the majestic patterns of the 3D TV, sports memorabilia and big-game busts proudly displayed. Please note that there is no proper closet in the single bedroom so we will provide a collapsible wardrobe.

You might spot the markings of both modern and vintage in the kitchen, from the unique pendant light fixtures to the revolutionary breakfast bar stools that come complete with bicycle pedals. The reclaimed-wood round of the dining table, resplendent upon a pelt rug, stands beneath a magnificent skylight. So gather round, recount the story of the day's journey and, as you pause for effect in the telling, gaze up at the open sky.
