Perks for the Parents

An elegant townhouse apartment in the heart of Notting Hill, just minutes’ walk from Hyde Park and one of London’s best playgrounds. It sleeps 4 + 1. Located on a quiet, leafy cul de sac, the residence is perfectly peaceful yet close to all buzz, boutiques and restaurants of trendy Notting Hill. The Diana Memorial playground at Kensington Gardens is conveniently down the road which helps when the kids need to expend some energy, and the local underground station is a 3 stop ride from the Natural History and Science museums of South Kensington. For downtime, the residence offers the perfect place to recharge and relax with a stylish open plan living area and shaker kitchen for laid back dining and curling up on the sofa with a good book or latest movie. The primary bedroom is chic and roomy with garden views, and the kids’ room is also at the back helping to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep all round.

Why Kids Love it

An unbeatable city base for the kids of all ages, with a space to play and some of London’s best family attractions on its doorstep. It’s under a 10-minute walk to Kensington palace and gardens where younger ones will find hours of fun at the Diana Memorial playground with its pirate ship, sandpits and water play. Hyde Park is just beyond with acres of green space, the Serpentine gallery, and a swimming/boating lake. It’s worth checking out its seasonal events calendar which include a festive winter wonderland and summer music concerts. Older kids and teens will also love the buzzing street markets in Portobello and Notting hill, while kids of all ages will find something of interest at the world-famous Natural History, Science and V&A museums of Kensington - a 10-minute car, bus or tube ride away.

Style Notes

Quintessential London. High ceilings and period features meet chic modern design in this beautifully renovated townhouse apartment. Large sash windows flood in plenty of natural light, alongside garden views in the bedrooms, brightened by a largely neutral palette and a clever use of mirrors. Versailles parquet flooring and beautiful textiles add warmth and texture, with statement chandeliers adding an elegant finishing touch in the open plan living areas. Handpicked art, and striking photographs weave further character, sitting comfortably next to pretty vintage furnishings. We love the custom cabinetry in the living room and kitchen, with the inviting window seat providing both clever storage and an inviting place to curl up with a book or a coffee and watch the world go by.

Notting Hill, London

Movie stars, museums and the market

This pretty, arty and desirable area of West London has characterful streets of Georgian and Victorian houses, the vibrant Portobello Market on a Saturday and easy access to the rest the city. Close to Kensington Garden and Palace, it has Gloucester Road’s blockbuster museums on the doorstep, including the V&A, Natural History Museum and Science Museum. And - tell the kids - it’s also the area that Paddington Bear calls home.
