Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Spread over four floors, it might go without saying that this Kensington home offers plenty of space. With two living areas and a garden with a terrace and barbecue, the London home gives you lots of opportunity to split off into small groups. With the bedrooms on the second and third floors, stairs will be a common feature of your stay, but we think it's worth it – not only is the home well equipped for family reunions or friendly get-togethers, it's just ten minutes from the nearest tube station. It even has its own parking space, a real find in the area.

Local guide
About Holland Park
Filled with mews streets, stucco mansions and green spaces, Holland Park is an idyllic neighbourhood sandwiched between Notting Hill, Kensington and Shepherd's Bush. Holland Park itself is one of London's most picturesque green spaces with a rich history. Today, the park boasts an open-air theatre and opera, Japanese-style Kyoto Gardens and a family playground. For dining, try Julie's and The Belvedere, and for a refreshing pint or aperol spritz, the Mitre and The Ladbroke Arms are a couple of great, classic British pubs in the area.
