5.0

Tucked away in a picturesque mews around the corner from Kensington High Street, this spacious three bedroom abode boasts top-of-the-range amenities while still maintaining a quintessentially English charm. The living room really sets the tone, with its neutral colour palette and comfortable furnishings, each coming together to create a relaxing, home from home. Although the kitchen is well equipped, we recommend taking the short stroll to the High Street for its exceptional bars, cafes and restaurants. A detour through Holland Park is a must, particularly for the Kyoto Garden. If you’ll be working from home, there’s a separate study space with iMac so you can whizz through that to-do list with no interruptions. And should you need to venture into the city, you’re a 15 minute walk from High Street Kensington tube station.

About Holland Park

Filled with mews streets, stucco mansions and green spaces, Holland Park is an idyllic neighbourhood sandwiched between Notting Hill, Kensington and Shepherd's Bush. Holland Park itself is one of London's most picturesque green spaces with a rich history. Today, the park boasts an open-air theatre and opera, Japanese-style Kyoto Gardens and a family playground. For dining, try Julie's and The Belvedere, and for a refreshing pint or aperol spritz, the Mitre and The Ladbroke Arms are a couple of great, classic British pubs in the area.
