About this property

Welcome to our home, which combines penthouse pleasures with family comfort. After all, my twin girls and I live here when we aren’t traveling ourselves.

Our penthouse home provides space, light, elegance and scenery across the top two floors (3,400 square feet) of a prestigious five story building. An elevator with private key access whisks you up to reveal a home above the trees, graced with abundant windows and bathed in light. The private roof terrace offers panoramic views across London and is the perfect spot for a BBQ, sun downer or game of bocce.

Our home is designed for our style of family living. We are connected and so is our home. At its hub is a massive, welcoming kitchen for meals and togetherness. The kitchen freely flows to the two spacious reception rooms and up the stairs to a loft reception and our terrace sanctuary. When we need even more green space, we spill out to the 2 acre communal garden below. At the end of the day, we retreat to our five bedrooms featuring two king and three double (queen) beds.

Our home is nestled in Little Venice, an enchanting central oasis. One of London’s prime residential areas, Little Venice features a stunning canal, serene tree lined streets and a jewel of a village high street. Walk comfortably to Notting Hill, Portobello Road and Regent’s Park or hop on the tube at Warwick Avenue to be anywhere in minutes. Take a guided walking tour of the area's famous places and people. Ship off on a charming canal boat to the London Zoo and Camden Market.

We love it and hope you and your family will too.

We endeavour to ensure that our guests are comfortably situated and remain available to address any questions.

Thank you.

A perfect place

We came to celebrate a 75th birthday. The house was perfect for our family. The master suite with its outside space was delightful. We appreciated the large kitchen and living area. It was nice to have breakfast at home but we ate out for all other meals. The owner Matt was very responsive and great to deal with.

Excellent all around!

Wonderful rental! Don't question this place for a second. Great communication with owners and impeccable property (as they live there when not renting out). In this regard, there is ample room for unpacking your own things and frig space. The 2 story penthouse is accessed via elevator and decorated in such a fun manner (but not so much that you worry about harming anything constantly). Great location with 2 tube stations very close to all London has to offer. Also an easy walk to markets, coffee shops, and pubs. Would rent again when visiting London!

Beautiful home in a great location!

This property was spectacular. Our family visited to participate in the London marathon and this was the perfect place to stay. We had close access to the tube and were so close to Paddington Park for our children to play. Communication with the owners was fabulous. They were kind, helpful and responded very quickly. Highly recommend!

Exceptional location and neighborhood

We had a perfect 4 days in London at Matt’s home. It was so stylishly decorated and comfortable and in a great neighborhood. Subway access close by and groceries and fab restaurants. We spent every night as a big family around the long table eating and playing games - it was a perfect family escape for Slrijg Break in London!

Terrific Place

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Unlike many other places we have experienced this is a real home filled with books, art, and many unique and personal items and objects. It has many places to sit and either be together or find a nook for privacy. It was December so we didn’t hang out on the porch, but it sure looks like a welcoming venue. Fantastic view and privacy. The owner was readily available by text to answer questions. For a family, it’s ideal. We had three generations of family and there was a place for everyone. The neighborhood is also quite nice. There are small shops, cafes, and restaurants within a short walk. Particularly good meals at Antika, the Waterway, Ritu, Le Cochonnet. All within walking distance of the apartment. The Tube is two blocks in either direction and gets one anywhere in London. In short, a terrific place.

Charming London Flat

Matt was very easy to communicate with and met us at the flat. The flat was perfect for our family of 8. It had a great washer/dryer, and a fabulous backyard giant garden that everyone loved. So charming and British! Online it looked like things might be breakable, but honestly even 4 kids age 5-9 did not break anything! The place is nestled in an adorable neighborhood and on the line that takes you to Embankment, Oxford circus etc. There are two tube stations nearby Maide Vale and Warwick. I would definitely recommend to others! We loved it! Very close to many coffee shops and there is great takeout as well! The only flaw was one shower head was a little wonky but there was good pressure and hot water!

London paradise

The penthouse apartment looks straight out of Elle Decor and is tasteful, tasteful, tasteful. Wonderfully located and easily accessed, it has a luxurious feeling of staying in a friend's lovely home, not in a sterile flat for rent. Everywhere you look there is something beautiful, elegant, unusual, dynamic. I could not imagine a more ideal temporary home in London.

Excellent week long stay

Great home. We stayed during a very cold week in March 2023. Whole place was warm and comfortable. Very close to the train station and supermarket. I was told by a local London family member that many celebrities live in Little Venice. We felt safe and free to go to many local attractions.

Awesome Flat in a Great Location

We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was in a lovely quiet neighborhood and near to restaurants and the tube station. The property manager was incredibly helpful and accommodating. The beds were very comfortable and the set-up was perfect for me and my three friends. There was plenty of space for us to spread out and have privacy while also being together. We also loved the views from the top floor and the private elevator. Overall it was a great property and I would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful, spacious apartment close to the city

Staying in this apartment was an absolute pleasure. The penthouse is spacious, impeccably decorated and very comfortable. Having a bedroom for each child made our visit much smoother than some other vacations. The spacious kitchen and sitting rooms were gathering places for our family as we started each day and after our outings. Easy transit access and very close to major London tube/train stations; close to groceries and some fun restaurants; very safe and walkable neighborhood with access to public gardens and the canal. Matt was great with communication and easy to work with.

Wonderful Vacation/Wonderful Flat

Our family had a great trip to London and this property was perfect for our family! Plenty of space to spread out, spaces to gather and be together, and beautiful view from the upstairs balcony! The apartment is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The neighborhood is quiet and lovely. It was easy to walk to places to eat and the tube is very near, allowing us to get anywhere we wanted to go. Matt is a wonderful host! He was an excellent communicator and was kind and gracious. Matt was very thoughtful and attentive, as is what is provided in the flat, down to phone chargers already in place on each night stand in master bedroom. I would highly recommend staying here for a comfortable, beautiful place to stay when in London!

Little Venice Penthouse- “WOW”

Matt is the ultimate host as well as being very patient when guests have questions. This 2 story Penthouse is amazing in every way- comfortable, the best appliances and showers you will ever see, as well as super comfortable beds and linens and when you include the private rooftop terrace this is by far the best VRBO experience of my life

Cool place, great views, unfair extra charge

Unfortunately, I couldn’t give 5 stars due to one issue where I found the owner to be unaccomodating: We happened to stay during a particularly warm & beautiful week in London. The heating in the flat couldn’t be turned down and it was sweltering, so we had to keep the windows open. A gust of wind came through and blew over a figurine which the owner had perched on the window sil. The owner made us pay 150 GBP for it, despite us explaining that it wasn’t our fault. We found this to be an unfair extra charge. Had the heating been able to be turned off, the window would not have been open in the first place, and the figurine wouldn’t have fallen. He wouldn’t budge on this issue which was very disappointing.

A Memorable Visit

This property is a very spacious (~3400 sq ft) penthouse in a superb location within London. Our entire family of 6 were able to spread out in complete comfort with mostly separate bedrooms for our 4 children and, with ample tables and chairs, to get together for group activities in the kitchen, dining room, and family room. After running around the city, this apartment was such a welcoming place to come home to in the evening. Beyond the customary amenities, the location included a convenience store less than 2 blocks away and an underground transit station a few blocks away. Overall this property is superb and I really couldn't think of a single item to improve upon.
