Hidden away behind Notting Hill Gate, this charming, split-level apartment is a sophisticated base for those looking to explore all that West London has to offer. Not only are you within easy reach of some of the city’s most popular tourist destinations – think Kensington Palace and Portobello Road Market – but you’re perfectly placed for immersing yourself in local life, situated just a stone’s throw from a whole host of independent restaurants and cafés. So, however you want to spend your time here, this place has got you covered.

When you’ve had your fill of being out and about, you’ll come home to a converted Victorian townhouse that’ll make you feel as though you’ve stepped into a scene from your favourite British film. Climb the interior staircase and find yourself in your gorgeous apartment, where we’re pleased to say you’ll have everything you need to unwind in style. Kick back and relax in the whitewashed living room, treat yourself to a glass of fizz and a long soak in the tub, or head up to the loft bedroom and gaze out at the tree-lined streets of Notting Hill.

Home truths:
*There's no lift here, so this home may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility *At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area *Your host can provide a travel cot for free upon request *Though there isn't a dedicated desk, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace *This home is in a central spot, so noise is to be expected *Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot
