Housed in a newly built and luxurious six-storey block, this spacious two-bed apartment enjoys an enviable West London location. In keeping with your well-heeled surroundings, the flat is fitted out with top-spec appliances and comfort cooling to keep you feeling fresh as the rest of London rushes to panic buy fans. The apartment also benefits from a private balcony where you can enjoy your morning coffee or a crisp G&T at the end of the day and a porter to keep things running smoothly. Wander the streets of West London, and within a five-minute walk, you can sample the food, culture and shopping on offer on Kensington High Street. If you prefer your shopping experiences less exposed to inclement weather, then Westfield London is packed with all your favourite shops and is less than a mile away. You're well set when it comes to transport, as you're under an hour from all the major airports, and Shepherd's Bush tube station is around a ten-minute walk away, providing you with an all-access pass to explore the rest of the capital.

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.
