About this property

LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION - Prime central London (ZONE 1)

Duplex flat with equally sized double rooms on different floors & separate bathrooms. Great for sharing couples and families, as private and individual. Living room has high ceilings and is a good size to accommodate everyone at the same time & includes a dining area too. Fully equipped kitchen for cooking. Property is situated in a cul-de-sac, so its very quiet, as no passing people or traffic, but still 2 mins walk away from the main road and nearest tube.

Fabulous Location

Our family stayed at Priyan,s property last week. The property is well located in Kensington not far from Notting Hill station. Which made getting around London very easy, there is a lot of cafes and restaurants very close to the property. Priyan emailed me a list of some of the best plces to visit and eat around the area. Having just arrived we were wanting to cook a family meal, we realised that there was minimal cooking utensils. I contacted Priyan asking if he knew where they were located he said he would call over an have a look. When he arrived he also could not locate them so went out and purchased what we needed, Priyan asked me to give him a list of things that I thought may also be required, he had no hesitation in obtaining anything that was required. And contacted me reguarly to check that everything was fine. My 2 teenage daughters shared the top bedroom which gave them their own bathroom and changing room which they were happy about. The only negative thing i found was that the mattress down stairs was very hard and may need replacing shortly but otherwise if you dont mind a firm bed it was fine. I would not hesitate is staying here again, it was just a shame that we were only there for 5 days. Would have loved to have got to Portebello Market on Saturday

Cute in Notting Hill

Great location for exploring the city...steps to Notting Hill Gate station with access to Circle and Central lines. Everything functioned and the bathrooms were freshly refurbished. The location was mostly quiet, the upstairs neighbors were loud walkers but quiet at night. There was a Tescos within easy walking distance for basic groceries and several pubs & coffee houses nearby if you were not inclined to cook. In all a great holiday let!

A very nice 2 bedroom 2 bath with lots of space and light. Best of all was the location on a quiet cul-de-sac close to Notting Hill Station and the Central line. Easy access to shopping and theatres. We will definitely try to stay here again next time we are in London.

Amazing

My Cousin and I had a fantastic week in London thanks to Priyan and his lovely flat. We arrived a bit early and Bearta met us and made us feel right at home, she was a gem. As for the flat, I have never slept so good. Comfortable living room and beautiful tall windows throughout. The location was unbelievable. Notting Hill Gate tube station is right around the corner as is Kensington Park. We walked everywhere. Thank you Priyan for a memorable holiday. Liz and Melissa

Great location!

Nice flat on a quiet dead end street. Great location to the Underground and restaurants. Had a great Indian meal and wish we would have had more time to try the Morrocan and Persian restaurants. There was also a nice bakery right on the corner and a grocery 5 minutes away. We walked to Hyde Park and Porabello Road. The owner was helpful with suggestions on where to eat and shop. Would stay again!

Great location,very safe and a beautiful clean apartment

Really enjoyed staying here! The location is fantastic. Its very quiet and safe. Its only a 5 minute walk to the tube or bus stop and your surrounded by really good restaurants. I highly recommend the very friendly "Paul Rhodes Bakery" on the corner for coffee and delicious pastries! Its a 10 minute walk to Kensington palace and Hyde Park. If your looking to sight see, the tube can get you to the Tower of London/Tower Bridge in about 30-35 minutes, Westminster/Big Ben in about 20-25. The Tesco grocery is about 5-10 minute walk as is the local pharmacy. If your an American, you may want to ask how the clothes washer/dryer combo operates. Its a little tricky if your not used to it. Other than that, we have no complaints and highly recommend staying there. Thank you Pri!

Notting Hill Gem

A great first floor flat just minutes to the Tube station. A great layout for our family of four, with one bedroom set up as a loft style with it’s own bathroom. We would definitely stay in the same flat again for our next visit to London.

Excellent Property

This is an excellent property with an excellent host. Our family of three stayed here for four days. We found the accommodations spacious, convenient, and the location ideal. There is a tube station nearby and plenty of restaurants. Hyde Park is only a block or so away. Priyan was quick to respond to communications, and even arranged for an Uber to pick us up at Heathrow. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Convenience, quiet and great amenities!

We really enjoyed staying here and will definitely come back. The bedrooms are roomy and there are two bathrooms. The flat is airy and comfortable, and super quiet! We stayed for two nights during the big heatwave, and with the windows open and fans going, we were just fine. Priyan was easy to work with, and it was very of him to have someone there to greet us. There were four of us and the flat did not feel small or crowded. The location couldn’t be better, being two short blocks from Notting Hill Gate underground, very close to Hyde Park and Portobello Road. We ended up taking busses everywhere as we were on a direct bus line to Oxford Street and on another bus line to Victoria Station. We recommend that you go to the underground and buy a daily or weekly bus pass so you can see the sights. Be sure to sit up top on the city double decker busses. There is almost always someone who will be happy to point out interesting places. Again, we had a great stay here and will be back.

Everything was perfect except the living room furniture was not comfortable. The couch was very low and the 4 chairs around the table were plastic and not at all comfortable. Despite the furniture we would certainly stay there again. Replacing the plastic chairs would help a lot.

About the host

Hosted by Priyan de Mel

I'm Sri Lankan and have been living in the Notting Hill area for over 10 years and think it is one of the most vibrant places to live in the world. The only things missing is the beach, palm trees and sometimes the weather.. but I guess I can just go home for that!

I love good food, eating out, meeting new people and chilling with friends and family. One of my favourite past times is having BBQs, especially if I am the cook.

I spend a lot of time travelling and learning about different cultures. One of my favourite places to visit is Norway where my sister and family live.

I look forward to welcoming guests and rest assured you will have not only have a comfortable stay but a host with all the local knowledge and special passes for bars, restaurants and tourist attractions.
