You’ll take a journey around the world in this bright and characterful West London home. The hosts have collected vintage furniture and art from the many countries they’ve lived in, including the Indian wooden dining table and the quirky light fittings. Not only are they keen globetrotters, but they're also taxidermists, too — keep your eyes peeled for butterflies and the artfully arranged pheasant in the living room. The large, open-concept kitchen is the real heart of the home, with French doors leading out to a pristine outdoor patio, which has a verdant plant wall and a barbecue ready for those summer evenings. The local neighbourhood is largely residential and consequently, quite peaceful. The banks of the Thames can be reached in under a quarter of an hour on foot should you feel in the mood for a riverside stroll. That being said, you can also be in Central London in around twenty-five minutes on the tube via the Piccadilly Line if you want a change of pace at any time.

Fresh Flight

This apartment is a cosy, comfortable base in a lively neighbourhood between Baron's Court and West Kensington. There are plenty of shops nearby, and you’ll have easy access to the rest of London via the District line. The apartment has a delightful patio area with a barbecue and a hanging chair, and it’s a real suntrap so it’s perfect for lazy, sunny afternoons. At full occupancy, one guest will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room, so we’d recommend a maximum guest count of two for those seeking more privacy. 

West Kensington Wonder

Ideal for family city stays, this modern home in West Kensington places you within easy reach of South Kensington’s museums, The Queen’s Club and Thameside’s restaurants. Though you’ll need to take transit to reach the V&A, Natural History Museum, and Design Museum, Baron’s Court Tube station is a short walk away. The space is bright and contemporary, with large spaces for socialising – the garden is our pick. And if you’re visiting with little ones, there’s a playhouse-style bed and a cot in the third bedroom.

West Oasis

This stylish spot in West Kensington is ideal for business or leisure breaks to the capital. First of all, the buzzing restaurants and boutiques of Kensington Highstreet are a five-minute walk from the front door, and you’ve got the Olympia Exhibition Centre a seven-minute walk too. If you want to get out and explore the big sights of London, you can hop on the Tube at Kensington (Olympia) and be at the likes of Buckingham Palace and Westminster in fifteen minutes.

Sunshine stream into the open living area from a row of Georgian sash windows, keeping this place bright throughout the day. The modern kitchen dominates the back wall, opening up to a dining area and a comfy sofa spot so the group can socialise in the evenings. Raw wood furnishings and modern art against gallery-white walls keep things calm and stylish.  

Elementary My Dear

This sprawling West London home, spread over three floors, is an ideal base for a group of friends or family of adults who want a base to escape to after the hustle and bustle of the city reaches boiling point. The home's inoffensive interior, replete with white, creates a relaxing atmosphere, although it's a pity there's no furniture on the terrace. There's no air conditioning, but the host will include fans during the summer to ease you into sleep. With no lift, you'll be traversing the three storeys here on foot. Barons Court and West Kensington underground stations are close by here for when you want to explore.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

Disbrowe Road

You'll find this charming townhouse nestled down a quiet leafy street in West Kensington, a short walk from the nearest Tube station. From here, you'll be well connected to the city centre, as well as plenty of pubs, bars and restaurants in Hammersmith and Fulham. At home, the private garden and patio area is a real standout and ideal for alfresco meals during the warmer months. Inside, it's a homey space with two sitting rooms, a fully equipped kitchen and a handy office for remote working, ensuring a comfortable stay throughout – just so long as you don't mind climbing a small flight of steps up to the entrance of this home. 

Comfort in Kensington

This gorgeous family home in West London is cut from the finest cloth, embodying the city’s spirit at its most elegant and its most welcoming. You’ll find both Latin American and Dutch influences in this home that’s at once timeless and in perfect fashion – we love how unique every room feels and the pervasive pops of pink sprinkled throughout. Kick your feet up in the bright, beautiful living room with light wood floors and a decorative original fireplace. Pour a glass of wine at the darling dining room table surrounded by vibrant art and enjoy a meal effortlessly prepared in the roomy kitchen. The master has gorgeous wallpaper and its very own antique desk – along with a porcelain tub for a luxurious soak at the end of the day. There are plenty of rooms for the children to pick from, complete with fun additions like the canopy bed and a keyboard. And when it’s time to explore, you’ll be a ten-minute walk from the cafes and shops of Kensington High Street and just nine minutes from the tranquil Holland Park.

Warwick Gardens II

Set within a traditional mansion building, this colourful and art filled apartment is perfectly positioned for an inspiring city break. From here, it’s a short stroll to Kensington High Street where you’ll find a great range of restaurants, cafes and shops. Holland Park is also within walking distance, while the nearest tube stations make it easy to explore further afield. Wherever the day takes you, this apartment has everything you could need to relax and disconnect. There are plenty of personal touches and the main bedroom comes with an ensuite bathroom – adding a wonderful sense of privacy. 

The Artist Collection

Located in Barons Court, this home is only a short stroll from the Olympia London Exhibition Centre and a nine-minute walk from the nearest Tube station connecting you to the rest of the capital. So whether you’re in town for work or pleasure, it’s a convenient spot. With a contemporary kitchen-diner opening onto an enclosed garden, entertaining is easy here (especially if you hire a private chef, which your host is happy to arrange). You’ve also got a separate lounge for cosy nights around the fire. We think it's a great option for a family or two couples wanting a quieter location with easy access to central London.

Barons Court Hideaway

Located on a peaceful Kensington street, this Victorian home has everything you need for a comfortable stay in London. This place is ideal for those wanting to stay out of the hustle and bustle of the Big Smoke, but close enough to easily see all of the sights. 

From the moment you arrive, you'll feel at home. A hallway takes you through to the living space, complete with a Turkish rug and an L-shaped sofa for optimum cosiness. The perfect spot for an afternoon nap before taking the city by storm. The dining space is sleek and modern, with neutral colours that are punctuated by colourful artwork and decor. It's a cheerful space, we can just picture home-cooked dinners and competitive board games around the table. 

You're just a ten-minute walk away from West Brompton Underground, and on the tube, you have the whole city at your fingertips. But you don't have to go far to experience London life. You're surrounded by charming leafy streets and in just under half an hour's stroll, you can reach the gorgeous Holland Park. The perfect picnic spot. Kensington High Street is a half an hour's walk away too, where you can explore the museums, sip coffee around the bistro tables, and get carried away in the boutiques. Come nighttime, why catch dinner and a show in the buzzing Hammersmith? It's just a twenty-minute walk away and there's always something going on at Hammersmith Apollo. Plus, the area boasts tasteful riverside restaurants and artsy cocktail bars – an ideal evening in the city.

Break of Day

In leafy West Kensington, this expansive apartment is an ideal stay in the capital. We love the light-filled living area, where movie nights and family dinners will surely be on the cards. Each bedroom is as cosy as the next – even if the third is on the smaller side – though the main suite is certainly the standout, with its clawfoot tub, comfortable superking bed, and generous storage space. Ready to explore London? You'll find plenty of cafes and eateries in the neighbourhood, while Notting Hill, South Kensington, and Shepherd's Bush are all within striking distance. There's also a Tube station nearby if you're keen to travel further afield.

Fitzjames Avenue IV

Exuding country charm with a farmhouse kitchen and cottage-core details, this West Kensington townhouse is cosy as can be. It may be tucked down a quiet residential street, but Kensington High Street is within walking distance and public transport is standing by to zip you across London. There's no air conditioning here, but portable fans make summer nights more bearable. We're fond of the main suite in particular, which takes up the entire second level and boasts a soaker tub and sumptuous super king-sized bed. And the outdoor area with a cute bistro table is perfect for when you want to embrace sunshine days.
