This home on Bassett Road rubs shoulders with the classic West London townhouses of Notting Hill fame. From here you can pop down to buzzing Portobello Market for a bargain or enjoy the many mouth-watering Portuguese and Caribbean restaurants around. The hosts are a pair of antique dealers so it’s no surprise that this home is filled with dark-wood dressers, marble busts and a collection of curios from across the centuries. There’s a distinctly lived-in feel from the vintage sofas to the bookcases brimming with books, which immediately puts you at ease. The hosts have made sure there’s plenty of room for wine in the kitchen, and there’s a cute balustraded balcony begging for a cool glass of rosé on a summer’s evening. If you want to explore further than Notting Hill, Ladbroke Grove Tube station is just a 5-minute walk away. Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.
