Our new house is in South Kensington, just south of Hyde Park in central London. We live in a mews house. Mews are the houses behind the larger formal homes in front. A hundred years ago they were the stables! The horses would have had their stall on the ground floor, the stable hands an apartment on the floor above, and the very top was the hayloft. In modern day London they are some of the larger homes you can find because you have all 3 floors. We love the cobbled street, and the natural light we get (also very hard to find in the city). Donnie is a little further from work, but we are central to everything else (food, shopping, parks, etc).
