The two pretty bay trees marking the entrance to Albion Mews do little to prepare visitors for the explosion of greenery to be found inside this quiet cul-de-sac: one of London’s greenest and most attractive mews.

Renowned potter Dame Lucie Rie (1902–1995) lived and worked on this street, while Sir Charles Vyner Brooke, the last white Rajah of Sarawak, also made his home here. This verdant haven is close to Lancaster Gate tube station and just a stone’s throw from Hyde Park.
