This pretty apartment close to Notting Hill strikes the perfect balance between timeless style and home comforts. In the living room, vintage furnishings rub shoulders with more contemporary pieces, and the artwork hanging on the walls alongside shelves packed full of books give the space a lived-in character. We were especially fond of the huge window with rustic shutters at one side, which lets in a generous amount of natural light, as well as the 1930s chandelier hanging above for when the sun goes down. In the bedroom, we also loved the cute balcony terrace with places to sit and watch the street below. The kitchen is dazzlingly white and on-trend, but if you're not in the mood for cooking, you couldn't be in a better location. Portobello Road is only four minutes' walk away and has a wide choice of brunch spots and restaurants. Notting Hill Gate can be reached in twelve minutes on foot, too. Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.
