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.

Perfect spot to see London!
Our family had a wonderful time visiting London while staying in Tass' flat in Notting Hill. The location of his place couldn't be more ideal. The flat is on the 3rd floor (no lift!) and the living room overlooks a lovely garden. The beds are comfortable and the bathroom is modern. The kitchen has pretty much everything you'll need to make meal at home, and there is a dishwasher and laundry machine. The neighborhood is absolutely adorable; the little shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs are all around you when you step out the door. It is safe, with lots of families walking children to school in the mornings, yet it is vibrant with plenty to do. It is a perfect location to see all the historical spots in London, and is walkable to Kensington Palace and High Street shopping. Tass' and Betty are communicative and very friendly. We highly recommend!

Perfect Location
Great location. Beds were comfortable. There were a few things that I would suggest to make things perfect. There wasn’t a mirror in one of the bedrooms and there were a few repairs that needed to be addressed. These were pointed out and I’m sure will be taken care of. Nothing major enough to deter another stay at the property. Don’t miss spending time in the garden. It is beyond beautiful. The host was amazing with communication.

Very enjoyable stay
We had a great stay. Communication with Tass was very easy and prompt. The apartment was great for our group of three and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the garden, something we felt was very English. The location was ideal, with buses and a couple of tube options being within easy walking distance. We were able to get around London very easily.

Second stay
Last fall I stayed here with my three sisters for 10 days, came back with my husband for 3 weeks and he loved it too. February is quite different than early September, but still so much light through the large windows (great sunrise view from the bedrooms), the garden beginning to bloom, the cozy living room, interesting, warm art work, great shower— and the market, pubs, shops, and delicious food so close. Tass and Betty could not have been more helpful and hospitable. When we come back to visit again (from the US), I will check here first!

We had a week in this lovely apartment. The apartment was well equipped overall, and the location was great. We could easily get the bus or the tube to wherever we wanted to go and it was a beautiful area to stay in. Thank you Tass. Jennifer

Great stay in Notting Hill
We had a great stay here! Tass was very responsive and provided recommendations for things to see and do and great places to eat and drink! We arrived before check-in time and were able to drop off our bags while they were finishing up cleaning, which was really helpful. The apartment is in a great location and was perfect for exploring London for a few days.

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.

Vibrant Neighborhood
This Notting Hill location was excellent. We enjoyed the local everything here - people, Portabella street, restaurants, shops, etc. It was was about a 10 minute walk to the tube, which got us everywhere we wanted to go with few changes. Everything else was a 2 min walk from the apartment. To enjoy the Portabella market experience, a Saturday stay is a must - I've seen street markets, but nothing like this one. As for Taz, the owner, he was quick to help with everything, even taxi service (Vemal is amazing). My only complaint with the apartment was it lacked drawer space in one of the rooms. It had a closet large enough to hang clothes and store our luggage, but had to get creative with our other clothing. (The second bedroom has plenty of space for both.) I would certainly stay here again as the location is amazing if you want to "live like a local". PS - the private garden is a must see - quiet, beautiful.
