Charming Notting Hill 2BR with magical garden - perfect for 2 couples or family

The Apartment
A lovely, light and airy apartment with two double bedrooms in a beautiful Victorian terraced house in the heart of beautiful Notting Hill. Recently decorated and with access to magical private gardens so you can live out your Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts fantasy without having to climb over the fence! On a quiet street but very near hustle and bustle of Portobello Road. Live the film!

The apartment sleeps four comfortably in two equal sized double bedrooms with queen beds. Perfect for two couples or a family with kids (of any age!).

Neighbourhood overview
For those who have seen the film Notting Hill, they won't need explaining what makes it a picture postcard perfect example of London at its best. Tree lines streets, old Victorian gas lamps, magical communal gardens between each block, charming pubs, trendy restaurants and bars, Portobello with its world famous antique shops plus Westbourne Grove with its designer boutiques. I could go on for ever...

Getting around
And also really convenient for central London. A 10 minutes walk to Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, a 15 minutes walk to High Street Kensington and its shopping. A 20 minutes walk to Westfield and its huge shopping centre. And a 25 minute bus ride (or 15 minute subway/tube) to Marble Arch and Oxford street.

Guest interaction
I live in a different house so apart from giving keys and answering any questions you will have the house to yourself. But I am always on email or phone should you need anything - such as a recommendation for dinner or even a good play to see in the West End!

Guest access
My cleaner Lilly will meet you at check-in, having prepared the apartment with fresh linen and towels.

Great flat in Notting Hill

My family and I stayed in this flat for a week. Great area just two blocks away from Portobello Road Market. About 1/2 mile from tube station and several bus stops within a block or two which made it easy to get to the heart of London. Communication with Tass was great throughout. Would absolutely stay here again.

Good on a budget!

The Booking and check in were fine. And we chose this location because of the reviews, which were great! We decided not to stay here - when we arrived we made other plans and left. This just wasn’t to our standards. But that is my error, the price was very affordable which matches the establishment. For someone on a budget this is fine, my daughter had chose for us on a budget. I am little bit older and like my amenities!! So not the fault of the VRBO, just the fault of me not checking. It’s a fine place for the price!

Great property, amazing location and awesome host.

This property is in the perfect location. Lots to see and do in the area. The property was perfect for 2 couples, it was clean and has everything needed to make for a comfortable stay. The host has great communication and was very helpful. The only thing that we could complain about was the main communal stairwell to the flat was quite dirty, if this clean it would make a much better first impression. Other than that, I would stay here again and recommend to anyone!

Super Notting Hill location!

Owner was amazingly helpful and available for information. We had a wonderful time. Lots of shops and stores nearby. Notting Hill tube a 10/12 minute walk. 52 bus into Knightsbridge/ Victoria right at the doorstep. Portabello Road 2 blocks away. Flat had all the amenities for cooking in the small kitchen. WI-FI and TV option excellent! Only drawback was I never saw on the listing any mention that it was on the 2nd floor, 44 steps up and no lift. A little challenging for our 70+ year bodies BUT boy were we fit after our 15 day stay!! Brilliant time.

Summertime in London

We absolutely loved our stay here and I can't say enough about how it made our first trip to London so enjoyable. Working with Tass was a pleasure as he was super helpful with information about the apt and the area with clear instructions concerning check-in and checkout ... no issues at all. Tass was remote in NYC, so a gentlemen named Solomon let us in when we got there and helped us get adjusted. Super nice guy. The Notting Hill area is just splendid being convenient to great shops, fantastic restaurants, grocery stores and pubs just minutes away. The Notting Hill Gate Tube station is only 15min walk with bus stops right across the street. This made it super easy to get around London. Loved that both the Tube and Bus are tap to pay. This wonderful apt was such a joy to come back to after a long day around the city or after long day out of the city … which we took to Bath. Look forward to coming back in the future

Excellent emplacement

Très bien situé , rue calme à 2 min de Portobello Road avec café, bakery, restaurent et boutique . Autobus vers le centre ville juste à côté . Desservi par deux lignes de métro. Bel immeuble avec verdure à l’arrière . Aurait besoin d’une couche de peinture pour rafraîchi le tout. Et bord du bain à refaire. Matelas d’une des chambres à changer. Cuisine peu équipé . Plafond haut qui donne de l’espace. Vent en tout temps donc pas besoin de climatisation

Top marks flat in a top marks neighborhood!

The flat is incredibly pleasant, and its prime location, near all the good things in Notting Hill, simply cannot be beat! Including access to the absolutely stunning garden... And Tass (the host) was eager & responsive to the few typical wrinkles that came up. My wife, 3 young kids & I stayed for a week, and when we go back to NH again, I can't imagine staying anywhere else!
