Ready for your dynamic London experience? Feel the thrill as you walk beneath the ivory pillars to enter your Kensington townhouse. The wood-stained cabinets and chic kitchen finishes are perfect for cooking your delicious produce from the Portobello Road Market. An ideal Saturday morning rendezvous for fresh fruits, vintage clothing, spectacular street food, and listening to local musicians. Back at your modern apartment, wash up for a night out on the town. Your en-suite laundry is handy to prepare for the next adventure. It’s time to hit the streets of Notting Hill. Just a short walk away, listen to the fountains sing at the heavenly green space of Kensington Gardens. Or top off the evening with beer-battered fish and chips from The Porchester Pub. Take note of the cozy cafes and stylish boutiques before calling it a night.
