Lovely Stay in Notting Hill
I loved our stary at Simon's flat. Ideal location in Notting Hill very close to transit and shopping but very quiet and peaceful. The flat was just as pictured and well equipped. The bed was super comfortable and the shower is really nice! I wouldn't hesitate to book and hope to visit again.

Great location for London visit
My husband and I spent a week in Simon’s flat. This is a perfect location for a London visit! Lot’s of great restaurants within walking distance, as are several grocery stores and pharmacies. The Portabello Market is just up the road. It is also an easy walk to the underground and bus stops. Simon was very responsive, and quickly sorted out the few problems we had.

Great Flat, Ideal Location
We stayed at this flat for 8 nights in September and were very happy with our choice. The flat is exactly as described and met all our needs. It was nice to have laundry facilities and a large living room. Eating out is great, but having some meals "at "at home" made our stay in London more relaxing. The neighbourhood is very pretty, there are lots of pubs and restaurants closeby and the Tube is just a short walk. We didn't meet our host, but exchanged messages during our visit. If we get back to London, we'll be looking to stay again.

Thank you so much, we will be back! The position of this spacious and light apartment is perfect - so quiet in a beautiful building / leafy road and yet literally round the corner from the buzz and delights of Notting Hill, and up to Westbourne Grove. Brilliant area to be in, easy tube etc, and so much to see. For us, due to convalescence, it gave us the perfect balance.

Great location
A very comfortable, well positioned apartment in Notting Hill. Close to subway, restaurants and Portobello Road markets. Everything you want or need on your door step including Kensington Gardens. The apartment is very spacious and queit. The washing machine and dryer are a plus, but everything you need is supplied and the fresh flowers and complimentary snacks were much appreciated. We totally enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this property. Thank you Simon for the memorable stay.

Great location
Comfortable bedding and furniture, close to pubs and grocery stores, close to restaurants and a Tube Station...what more could you want? Having a multitude of channels on the TV for those few rainy days you might encounter is an added bonus. Simon is a delight to work with and very prompt with communication. We enjoyed our short break of 5 nights!

Great location, lovely flat
The flat is exactly as advertised and the location is extremely convenient. A few minutes walk to the tube and bus routes, groceries and restaurants. It’s hard to believe you’re so close everything London has to offer when all you can hear in bed is birdsong. Communication with Simon was excellent, and he answered all my questions promptly (Even the dumb ones)

Best Stay in London
A true gem in Notting Hill this flat is incredibly spacious, luxurious and in the perfect location just off Portobello Road. Could not think of a single thing that would have improved our stay - we were here for a month and loved every aspect of the flat, Simon was one message away to help with anything we needed, and really enjoyed just living like a local in this Notting Hill gem.

Lovely flat in the perfect location
This flat has it all: loads of space, a full kitchen, a shower with water pressure (!), shelves full of enticing books, and a fabulous location. It's walking distance to a well-connected tube station, Portobello Road's market and shops, fantastic restaurants and pubs, Kensington Gardens/Hyde Park, Holland Park, and more. The owner is a very proactive and prompt communicator, providing information about the flat before arrival and checking in periodically throughout the stay to make sure all was well. We didn't want to leave!

Four weeks in London
A thoroughly enjoyable stay in London enhanced by excellent accommodation. The location could not be better having easy access to buses and the tube. Grocery shopping was easy with Tesco, Waitrose and M & S being close. The apartment was comfortable and all on one level. A good shower and cooking was easy. Most importantly it was very quiet. Not once were we disturbed by traffic or neighbour noise.

Wonderful Property!
We couldn't have chosen a better place to call "home" for the past 12 days. The apartment has everything one could ask for. Location, comfort, nicely appointed, mod-cons, and a very attentive host. The neighborhood is quiet but close to the action, the tube, shopping, and some attractions. During our stay it was unusually warm for London and the apartment stayed nice and cool being on the bottom floor. French doors to the front and back gardens provided a nice cross breeze and gave it a "homey" feel and far less claustrophobic than a hotel. The large soaking tub provided relief after long days of walking and the walk-in shower had great water pressure and no lack of hot water. The huge towels were a plus. Thank you, Simon, for sharing your wonderful property. Should we find ourselves back in the UK we certainly know where we're staying! Kevin & Jim San Francisco

Perfect stay
Simon is the perfect host. As an example, when the clothes dryer stopped working, he replaced it . The apartment is quiet and for those who wish to cook their own meals, 5 minute's walk from Waitrose, Tesco& M&S food shop on Notting Hill Gate. Convenient to Notting Hill Gate tube station and Hyde Park. Spacious, comfortable and highly recommended for couples. Washer and dryer work well, and Simon supplied us with fresh linen and towels halfway through our 2 week stay. Can not say enough good things about the experience Definitely stay here again.

loved it !
We so enjoyed our stay at 3a Pembridge Crescent. The flat was spacious and provided everything we needed. The location was great and in a lovely neighbourhood, allowing us to easily see so much of London via walking and using the "Tube". We found Londoners to be friendly and helpful too. We did find the bed a bit too firm for our liking and while the sheet and the duvet cover were in good condition, the duvets and the mattress cover need attention or replacing due to many old stains on them. We do highly recommend this accomodation other than that detail which I'm sure can be easily fixed.

Not quite as advertised
This looked good in the photos but turned out to be a bit shabby and really needs some attention. It was the right location for us, close to Portobellow road and a tube stop. But the furniture is badly stained and my wife refused to sit on it without putting a sheet down first. The kitchen was adequate and easy to use. The rear patio is in shambles and filthy. To Top It Off! the building is completely covered in scaffolding. We were told about it just three days before we arrived but come to find out it had been up for six weeks before we got there. We had to crawl through it to get to the front door. We should have been given advanced notice so we could have found an alternative. The painters were not discreet and there was no shade on a window in the bathroom. Quite disconcerting. Not going back...

About the host

Hosted by simon cole

Host profile image
A resident of Notting Hill for some 30 years, I know the area well and this apartment was at one time my home. I selected it for the location and then completely re-furbished it, fitting out in contemporary style with wooden flooring throughout and fixtures to a high standard.

What makes this property unique

The property has a unique large bathroom with both tub and walk-in shower room. Part of the bathroom has a large glass conservatory-style ceiling which, amazingly for the location, is completely private and not overlooked.
