Veeve (formerly Vive Unique) specialise in London home rentals - whether it’s a cool Shoreditch penthouse, a Notting Hill studio or family home in Chelsea, and guests can enjoy living like a Londoner. We offer London homeowners the opportunity to earn extra income, effortlessly. Once a property is listed, we market the homes, vet the guests, take payment, check them in and deal with all their queries or any issues during their stay. We will clean the home before and after each stay, even supplying our own linen and towels. What’s more, Veeve’s comprehensive insurance protects the home and contents, giving hosts complete peace of mind while away. Meanwhile, London visitors can choose from a collection of hundreds of local townhouses, apartments and penthouses across the city. A variety of in-home services can be additionally selected for guests to enjoy. We’ve mastered a way to help you live like a Londoner.

With attention to detail in every room, this vibrant, uniquely designed home has no shortage of space or entertainment. The dual living spaces play on day and night, the first offering a serene space uniting soft tones and natural light, and the second providing a warmer, more intimate environment, ideal for a cosy evening in. And for those of you with kids in tow, there's a generously-sized playroom on the basement floor, allowing both spaces to stay (mostly) toy-free. Back upstairs is a sun-soaked kitchen, featuring a cavernous glass ceiling strung with colourful lanterns, and a spacious cooking area, opens onto a well-trended garden. The five bedrooms are a lesson in zen, combining cool colours and clean lines. And as for the bathrooms - a grand total of five, plus guest WC - things get positively psychedelic. Think jazzy wallpaper and neon pink pearls of wisdom, perfectly encapsulate the whole ethos of this home. To wit: fabulous. We love... The look (and sheer number) of the bathrooms, all of which are distinctly and vividly designed, and include a large walk-in shower and/or roll-top bath tub. And the basement ensuite even comes with its own secret entrance. Clue: maybe peer behind the bookshelf... Home Truths: A garden this well-groomed needs a little, well, grooming, so be prepared to receive a few visits from the gardener during your stay. The principal bedroom comes with a double closet (London shopping spree accommodating), although one of these will not be for guest use. The fourth bedroom includes a small double bed, which may be best suited to one adult.

Wandsworth has undergone a period of huge development in the past few years, with attractive and spacious architecture being built on its riverside. The influx of young professionals has brought to the area a boom in bars and restaurants – although at least one restaurant, Chez Bruce, has been serving Michelin starred food since opening in 1995. Expect bars and pubs to be buzzing with young locals on a Friday and Saturday night.
