This stylish Notting Hill apartment on Westbourne Grove could easily grace the pages of any leading interior design magazine. We adore the period features, such as the ornate cornices and sash windows, along with the herringbone wood floors, chic marble kitchen and bathroom. Plan your day in London from the curvy, velvet sofa after breakfast at your large dining table with its comfy rattan chairs. First of all, we'd suggest browsing the gorgeous boutiques of Westbourne Grove, right on your doorstep. The antique stalls of Portobello Road Market are around a fourteen-minute walk away, while it's a few more minutes to the Museum of Brands. Or culture lovers can head to the Gate Theatre, nine minutes on foot. On top of all this, Notting Hill Station is a ten-minute saunter if you want to explore the rest of what London has to offer. This home is perfect for a couple or solo traveller wanting the full Notting Hill experience.

Try Top nosh at Granger & Co.
Aussie chef Bill Granger’s troops serve up superb food, wine, and coffees in this bustling corner location. Get there early to beat the morning queues and relish an epic brunch.
Catch a film at Electric Cinema
Not your average cinema: think large, comfy red velvet armchairs, front row beds for cosy couples, an Edwardian Baroque-style interior & cocktails delivered to your chair. Sound like a plan?
Visit the Museum of Brands
Remember when Mars Bars used to be 10p? It’s all there, the brands and packs, radios and ads, fads, sweets, toys and games. Evocative and inspiring, it’s a kaleidoscope of images and brands.
Try the best tacos in town at Taqueria
Celebrate your London trip with a Latino vibe and deliciously confectioned tacos.
Explore The Tabernacle
A stunning red-brick former church offering a community theatre, exhibition space, dance studio, and all-day dining. Enjoy a delicious vegan roti wrap or relax in the outdoor seating area.
Grab a green meal at Farmacy
A leafy café with a retro vibe which attends to the needs of vegetarians, vegans, and other tribes with maximum style.
Bookshop of the movie
Famous as the inspiration for Hugh Grant’s bookshop in the film Notting Hill, it sells (wait for it) travel books, and also hosts several author events every month.
Catch a Film at The Gate Picturehouse
Dating back to 1911, The Gate is a gorgeous single-screen cinema in the heart of Notting Hill.
Let the kids tire themselves out at Avondale Park
A lovely community park with playgrounds for small and big kids, an outdoor cafe, and open green space. Enjoy a peaceful walk, watch children play, or relax on new picnic tables.
