3 KNIGHTSBRIDGE SW1 An area long known for offering its residents the most civilised of lifestyles, Knightsbridge continues to excite and enthral those who choose the Royal Borough to be their home. Found within this exclusive neighbourhood are a selection of the most distinguished shopping and dining experiences that London has to offer: the emporiums of Harrods and Harvey Nichols, and the international fashion houses on Sloane Street are all effortlessly to hand, while the array of world-class restaurants within the locale is an epicurean s dream. Zuma, Petrus, Marcus and Dinner by Heston Blumenthal are some of the finest restaurants in all of London. Beyond the well-heeled Knightsbridge boulevards lie private garden squares and treelined streets offering residents a place of peace amongst London s cosmopolitan bustle. With the open space of Hyde Park to the north, and the culture of South Kensington s museums and The Royal Albert Hall in close proximity, it is easy to see why the area offers such an outstanding way of life. 2 3
