Newly fitted Notting Hill Gate vacation home sleeps 2-4 only 3-min walk to tube.

This small family home has been recently fitted out with all the necessities and is ideal as a holiday home for two adults - either using the bedroom only - or an additional two adults or children when making use of the living room double sofa bed. The bedroom has its own en-suite shower room and the kitchen/living-room sofa bed user has the use of the second shower room. The flat is in the only single storey building in the street and has its own front door which gets you into the flat immediately. There is parking for a car outside the front door, it’s a tight fit but doable, the trick is to pass the flat in the westerly direction and then back in. It’s free and legal provided the car wheels are on the house side of the yellow lines. Getting there takes about 45 minutes from Heathrow airport or about an hour from Gatwick. It is located in a quiet street in the pretty pastel-painted Notting Hill and is a very convenient three minute walk from Notting Hill Gate tube station - with its fast links to the many popular Central London visitor attractions via the Central or District and Circle Lines. Portobello Road street market stalls (only active on Friday and Saturdays) and restaurants are a twenty minute walk, and Queensway is a 10-minute walk for near- or far-Eastern restaurants. There are four supermarkets and plenty of fast food outlets around the tube station, plus plenty of gastro pubs. Getting to the South Kensington museums is easy by bus or tube, as are Covent Garden, Soho and West End theatres for a lively evening. The area is popular with artists as well as bankers - Freddie Mercury lived near the main shopping street - Kensington High St., the painter Lucian Freud worked in his studio in Kensington Church St just a hundred yards away, and a film director with a long string of succesful films has recently moved into our street - Notting Hill also being the clue. If you fancy a walk through the Royal Parks then head east along Bayswater Road and turn right into Kensington Gardens. Drop into Kensington Palace where Princess Diana lived and where Queen Victoria was born, then cross into and walk through Hyde Park to Hyde Park Corner, take a look at Number One London - the Duke of Wellington’s former London mansion- then head down Green Park to Buckingham Palace (collecting your Knighthood or Damehood) then through St James’ Park -the loveliest of the parks -to Horseguards Parade and head for the small opening in the middle of the main building looking over the parade ground, and then pass into Whitehall. But do check to see if any of these visits need to be booked first. Then you can turn right and pass Downing St - where you may see Prime Ministers changing as often as the Guard - and move on to Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament. Or you can turn left and head past the Cenotaph war memorial on your way to Trafalgar Square, the National Picture Gallery and St Martins in the Fields Church -dating from the 1690s. This should take you more than one day but you can return to Notting Hill Gate easily from several tube stations en route.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Fast trip to London
Perfect location for 3 Adults. A good value for a private, quiet and comfortable place to call a home away from home while seeing all the historic and memorable sights. I had a little trouble understanding the dual washer/dryer machine so had to air dry. May be good to have some instructions for those of use to two separate machines. Great host.

GREATT LOCATION
Rob’s place made me a VRBO believer! ABNB didn’t provide enough options so we stumbled upon this conveniently located gem for our first visit to London. Rob’s directions were easily followed with no communication problems. We were allowed an early check in and check out - major bonus. And the ladies who help Rob were diligent in changing linens. The flat itself is less than a five minute walk to the tube, shopping & restaurants. It also uniquely stands out among all the colorful houses in the safe Nottingham neighborhood. The main bedroom has a comfy queen mattress & an ensuite bath with a shower. The living area combines with a fully stocked kitchen and washing machine (plan to air dry your clothes) and has a fold out futon that is a bit small for two adults. But the big surprise was the second fully stocked bathroom with shower - another major bonus. The only thing we would have liked in the master is a mini fridge bc you do have to intrude in the living space to access the fridge. And a pull out couch would be better than a futon. The flat is above the tube but barely audible. It does make the lights flash when it goes by. That could be problematic for those with sensory issues. But I imagine that occurs with all the flats in the area. Also, bring an eye mask for sleep as the sky light in the living room is super bright. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Rob’s place and feel like the flat was well worth the cost. Thanks for hosting us, Rob!

Property was perfect for our 4-day stay. The location is ideal: the neighborhood is nice and the walk to the tube takes less than 5 minutes. For a one-bedroom flat, we had enough room for four and everything we needed. Great place to stay in London!

Super convenient Location
Great communication with Rob throughout! He was super helpful and gave lots of advice. The space was perfectly placed near to the tube and suited us with with 2 adults in one room and 2 kids on the sofa bed - the 2 bathrooms with 2 showers was great! I didn't really notice the noise even though it was close by. The rooms were clean and well kept. There was good space for our 3 large suitcases and it really helped to be able to drop off our bags when we arrived and we could leave them later in the day before travelling home. It was also really helpful to have a few basic items in the cupboards to make tea/coffee and numerous cleaning products too. The shower gel/shampoo/conditioner were also a blessing on our first night. The extra fans were much appreciated on hotter evenings. Didn't end up using the TV as it was a bit awkward trying to find a way to log in so we gave up - plus we were super busy and didn't really have time to watch it anyway. Couple of things to note: while there is a washer/dryer it was impossible for us to get the clothes dry so best to use the dry cleaners at the end of the street if you need to do washing. Couple of minor areas for improvement would be more mugs/wine glasses since these were very limited and the lid on the bin needs replacing.

Great Notting Hill flat
My family (two adults and two teenagers) stayed at this wonderful flat near Notting Hill Gate for four nights. The proximity to the Tube stop was perfect, with a lovely short walk past colorful houses to and from. The flat is quiet except for some sounds from the underground trains, but those quickly became white noise. The flat can sleep two on the bed, and two on the fold out couch. We traded off sleeping locations and found both beds to be quite comfortable. Having two bathrooms was great, especially with teenagers, and we also used the washing machine to run laundry and hang it to dry while we were out. I began corresponding with Rob around 7 months before our trip, and he was an enthusiastic and friendly communicator. He invited me to text while we were on our trip, but we did not have any problems that we needed help with, so I did not take advantage of that invitation. Rob is an excellent host, and provided very helpful and thorough instructions for the property and well as recommendations for nearby services and attractions. Of the four places in Europe and the UK we stayed during our trip, we enjoyed Rob's flat in London the most. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to visit London, and will be rebooking in the future to return to see the things we missed!

Great even if you are just a couple like us, two bathrooms getting ready each day was great! Lovely kitchen with all you could need and the luxury of a washing machine and tall airer.

Lovely Flat in a great location
In previous London visits we had stayed farther east. This was the perfect location to explore Notting Hill, Little Venice and Kensington. There are so many things to see within walking distance. The flat was clean and there was plenty of space—if felt luxurious for a big city. Rob sent lots of helpful information about the flat and the neighborhood. All in all a great stay!

Great location, charming, safe, neighborhood. Tube station, buses, grocery shops and cafes just 5 minutes away. Comes with a parking spot right outside the door. We had rented a car and been traveling around England, so needed safe parking for a few days as you don’t want a car for getting around London. Well equipped kitchen, even had a French press coffee maker! We would stay there again next time in a heartbeat. Thanks, Rob!
