About this property

Charming Notting Hill 2BR with magical garden - perfect for 2 couples or family

The Apartment
A lovely, light and airy apartment with two double bedrooms in a beautiful Victorian terraced house in the heart of beautiful Notting Hill. Recently decorated and with access to magical private gardens so you can live out your Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts fantasy without having to climb over the fence! On a quiet street but very near hustle and bustle of Portobello Road. Live the film!

The apartment sleeps four comfortably in two equal sized double bedrooms with queen beds. Perfect for two couples or a family with kids (of any age!).

Neighbourhood overview
For those who have seen the film Notting Hill, they won't need explaining what makes it a picture postcard perfect example of London at its best. Tree lines streets, old Victorian gas lamps, magical communal gardens between each block, charming pubs, trendy restaurants and bars, Portobello with its world famous antique shops plus Westbourne Grove with its designer boutiques. I could go on for ever...

Getting around
And also really convenient for central London. A 10 minutes walk to Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, a 15 minutes walk to High Street Kensington and its shopping. A 20 minutes walk to Westfield and its huge shopping centre. And a 25 minute bus ride (or 15 minute subway/tube) to Marble Arch and Oxford street.

Guest interaction
I live in a different house so apart from giving keys and answering any questions you will have the house to yourself. But I am always on email or phone should you need anything - such as a recommendation for dinner or even a good play to see in the West End!

Guest access
My cleaner Lilly will meet you at check-in, having prepared the apartment with fresh linen and towels.

Trip of a lifetime!

I have always wanted to visit London. My son and I wanted to stay in Notting Hill since it was convenient to so many shops, restaurants, and close to the Tube. The property was clean and whenever we had questions the owner responded immediately.

Quiet/Great location

Much to see and do in the Portobello Road area and this flat is right around the corner. It is up 3 flights of stairs if that matters to you. Kitchen is well equipped and everything you need for your stay is provided. Great communication and house manager met us for check in.

Feels like home

This was our third stay at 14 Arundel Gardens, and we continue to love it. The garden view from the living room and the sunrise view from the bedroom offer a peaceful connection with nature— even on a rainy January day.

Wonderful Stay!

This brightly lighted flat has nearby grocery stores, a book store, a butcher, bakeries, liquor stores, flower stand, and restaurants-- everything one could need. The flat was great. Bedding was comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, and the lounge spacious. We stayed for 5 1/2 weeks and had a grand time. We look forward to returning. Our host Tass was friendly, attentive and responsive.

Lovely flat, Perfect Location

We had a wonderful stay with our 10 year old at the flat in November. It had pretty much everything we needed to be comfortable and the location could not be more perfect. The beds were great and the flat was very cozy - I was worried about it being chilly in November but it was warm. It was super easy to get to the Tube and bus lines and was very close to shops and restaurants. Would recommend.

Perfect spot to see London!

Our family had a wonderful time visiting London while staying in Tass' flat in Notting Hill. The location of his place couldn't be more ideal. The flat is on the 3rd floor (no lift!) and the living room overlooks a lovely garden. The beds are comfortable and the bathroom is modern. The kitchen has pretty much everything you'll need to make meal at home, and there is a dishwasher and laundry machine. The neighborhood is absolutely adorable; the little shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs are all around you when you step out the door. It is safe, with lots of families walking children to school in the mornings, yet it is vibrant with plenty to do. It is a perfect location to see all the historical spots in London, and is walkable to Kensington Palace and High Street shopping. Tass' and Betty are communicative and very friendly. We highly recommend!

Ausreichend für fünf Tage

Die Wohnung ist in die Jahre gekommen u. könnte eine Renovierung vertragen. Es war jedoch sauber und für 5 Tage, wenn man permanent unterwegs ist, ausreichend. Ruhig gelegen u. schnell an der UBahn.

Apartment is a little dated, but functional. A microwave and coffee maker would be nice additions, but we did use the French press.

Nettes Apartment in zentraler Lage

Wie vielfach bereits beschrieben - ein sehr nette Unterkunft in ruhiger, aber gleichzeitig auch sehr zentraler Lager. Die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel sind super zu erreichen. Sehr empfehlenswert ist auch eine Tour mit den Bussen, die fast vor der Haustür starten. Gute Einkaufs- und Ausgehmöglichkeiten in unmittelbarer Nähe. Und on top: ein super Vermieter, der zeitnah auf alle Anfragen reagiert.

Perfect Location

Great location. Beds were comfortable. There were a few things that I would suggest to make things perfect. There wasn’t a mirror in one of the bedrooms and there were a few repairs that needed to be addressed. These were pointed out and I’m sure will be taken care of. Nothing major enough to deter another stay at the property. Don’t miss spending time in the garden. It is beyond beautiful. The host was amazing with communication.

Very enjoyable stay

We had a great stay. Communication with Tass was very easy and prompt. The apartment was great for our group of three and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the garden, something we felt was very English. The location was ideal, with buses and a couple of tube options being within easy walking distance. We were able to get around London very easily.

Second stay

Last fall I stayed here with my three sisters for 10 days, came back with my husband for 3 weeks and he loved it too. February is quite different than early September, but still so much light through the large windows (great sunrise view from the bedrooms), the garden beginning to bloom, the cozy living room, interesting, warm art work, great shower— and the market, pubs, shops, and delicious food so close. Tass and Betty could not have been more helpful and hospitable. When we come back to visit again (from the US), I will check here first!

We had a week in this lovely apartment. The apartment was well equipped overall, and the location was great. We could easily get the bus or the tube to wherever we wanted to go and it was a beautiful area to stay in. Thank you Tass. Jennifer

About the host

Hosted by Tass Tsitsopoulos

Host profile image
I am a Greek Londoner, now spending some time in New York!

I lived in the apartment for many happy years, but have recently relocated to New York for a few years and have enjoyed renting out the apartment in the interim to couples and families for their vacation. I have been on 'the other' site for a couple of years and am now trying VRBO too.

It's such a joy to interact with people from all over the world - who treat the place like their home and who I enjoy recommending local sights, sounds and tastes to.

Why they chose this property

Honestly? I was first attracted to Notting Hill by the film. And I'm pleased to report that the area has hardly changed since then.
So come live your Julia Roberts/Hugh Grant fantasy for a few days or more...

What makes this property unique

The Victorian charm; the huge windows; the view of the communal garden from the windows; the communal garden which feels like a secret wonderland. The peace and quiet. The blue glass fixture in the hallway. The neighborhood.
