Welcome to our apartment in Notting Hill. This is very much a loving home full of character and is light, airy, and comfortable, a recently refurbished property over two floors (820 square feet) with great facilities, a home from home.
The apartment is on the first and second (top) floor of a purpose-built 1970s, three-story building. The exterior of the building is not impressive, but the interior is quite the opposite and the balcony overlooks pretty painted townhouses.
A convenient four-minute walk to the bustling Portobello Road where the famous Portobello Antiques Market takes place on Saturdays, the daily open-air market (where you can buy fresh flowers and lovely fruit and vegetables), and plenty of great restaurants and cafés. The nearest small supermarkets for essentials are a 4-minute walk away, and Westfield shopping mall (Europe's largest) is a 10-minute bus ride.
Ladbroke Grove Underground station (our nearest) is only 4 minute walk away, and there's a frequent bus service within a 3-minute walk that takes you to Oxford Street and the West End, (London's theatre district). Of course, we have a local taxi company that can take you anywhere at the drop of a hat and you can use your Uber app here too.
Uber Eats and Deliveroo deliver to the apartment too.
A nearby bus service will take you to the famous City of Oxford in only one hour.
The entry floor level of the apartment has two bedrooms, one with full-size single bunk beds and the other with full-size single and full-size bunk beds. There's a separate bathroom with a shower and a WC.
The top floor has an open living, dining and kitchen space, it has a well-equipped hi-spec kitchen with new appliances and a beautiful long antique pine farmhouse kitchen table. There is also a Stokke highchair should you need it. There's a state-of-the-art Samsung flat-screen TV with Netflix and Amazon Prime plus many other channels, also an extensive collection of DVD's. There is very fast (400MBS) full-fibre Wi-Fi so working here is a breeze.
The master bedroom has a King-size bed and has a family bathroom adjacent with a double-ended bath and powerful shower over it. There is also a single futon (chair/bed) in this room.
The house is incredibly child friendly, we know how difficult it is to travel with children and slip quickly into a routine when you arrive somewhere new. We have plenty of books and games and there is a baby monitor should you need it. We also have a travel cot if required which can be placed in any bedroom. If you're traveling with children you won't need to bring a thing other than their favourite snuggly!
Towels and linen are included and the apartment is spotlessly cleaned before each rental. Additional linen is available by arrangement and maid service during the rental period can be provided at the guests' own cost. I live just around the corner and am on hand to deal with any emergencies and to give advice on places to visit and restaurants etc.
We provide a file filled with useful information so you can quickly get to grips with where everything is, not only in the property but our preferred restaurants and services in the area and there are also plenty of travel, cookery, and guidebooks to browse.
The accommodation is enormously flexible, the beds are of very high quality, and so are the showers, guests often write appreciative notes about these. All the bedrooms are quietly appointed, so there should be little to disturb your sleep.
For those of you who crave exercise, there's a gym in the same street and daily membership can be purchased.
For those with buggies please note there is no lift, there are 3 sets of 8 stairs, this will be changing in late 2023!
The apartment is a beautiful, practical, and peaceful place to escape and enjoy London's hustle and bustle; our guests have told us that they enjoyed ' the luxury of a hotel whilst feeling a part of London life.'
We also have another listing on Airbnb so please see all our 5* reviews, look for a Peaceful Notting Hill 3 Bed Apartment!
We look forward to welcoming you to London!
