ABOUT ECCLESTON SQUARE. A highly desirable place to both to live and visit, Eccleston Square -- a collection of beautiful 19th century townhouses built around a 2.5 acre garden square -- dates to the 1830s. At that time, the area was known as "Lower Belgravia" -- an extension of the Aristocratic enclave of "Belgravia" just a few blocks away. Winston Churchill moved to Eccleston Square a year after marrying Clementine Hozier, and their first two children, Diana and Randolph, were born here. Today, Eccleston Square consistently wins London’s ‘Best Garden Square Competition’ for its cultivated beauty and unusual selection of rare plants. As a Greenhaven guest, enjoy access to this 'residents only' private garden and its many seating, dining, lounging, tennis court and play areas along with its meandering walking paths through 'mini garden' settings for a magical botanical experience.

Amazing Location

The communication in advance of the trip was fantastic and the location can't be beat! We loved being able to walk around the neighborhood and it was a great central location for exploring London. The unit itself was lovely - I think I would recommend it for 3 people - a couple and one other - but that might just be that our sons annoy one another and need more space. :). We loved staying here and the garden is gorgeous.

This property was excellent in every way. Located on a quiet street with a 5minute walk to Victoria station. The flat was clean, quiet and comfortable. It was exceptionally well equipped including a Nespresso machine, tea, condiments and even a bar! We were traveling with our granddaughter and she had her own little room. Our host Paula, was very helpful and check in was easy. We loved our stay.

Great apartment close to dining, shopping, Victoria Station…we walked to Buckinham palace and Kensington Palace, but we like to walk…it may be better to cab to some areas. The garden across the street is a wonderful place to explore. Paula, our host was quick and responsive…one note of caution, the stairs from the street can be difficult with heavy luggage…but don’t let that stop you…enjoy your stay!

About the host

Hosted by Paula Harvan

Host profile image
I have been offering luxury holiday accommodations since 1999, with properties in London, Paris, the South of France and Napa Valley, California. Residential design and decor is my passion, and I strive to provide dwelling places that are more expressive, more beautiful than most other similarly-priced and sized vacation rentals. The hallmark of each residence is its personal style, which reflects its unique character and location. For example, Greenhaven London, which opens to the beautiful private gardens of Eccleston Square, is designed with the idea of bringing the look and feel of the garden inside with a calm natural palette sparked by carefully placed bursts of color. Quality furnishings, decor and a level of convenience, comfort and attention set help set my properties apart from other rentals. My philosophy: I would never rent a property that I would not stay in myself. So, putting myself into my guests’ shoes, I aim to 'think of everything' to make a stay a most positive and memorable experience.

Why they chose this property

When searching for a property to live in, I wanted the best aspects of London at my doorstep: proximity to major sites, transportation, shopping, dining, culture and entertainment, and an upscale neighborhood with a traditional English feel. I found it in Greenhaven. An added bonus: Eccleston Square, an award-winning private garden, right is outside my front door in one of London's best areas.

From the outside of Greenhaven, the view is similar to the garden featured in the popular film Notting Hill. You see the upper branches of trees, swirls of clematis, heady explosions of climbing roses and, here and there. When you hear the birds sing in this wonderful in-town oasis, London seems to disappear -- yet all of its wonderful sights, sounds, tastes and experiences are right outside the garden gates.

Eccleston Square came about when town planner Thomas Cubitt, who developed it in 1845, had the idea of gathering everyone's back gardens together. Around the periphery, a shady walk winds though arches of wisteria and clematis. Garden buffs appreciate several unique specimen plants, including a handkerchief tree from China -- and art buffs enjoy the irises, some of which came from Monet's garden in Giverny, France. The Garden Square has won many awards not only for its botanical beauty, but also for its well-integrated features, such as several brick patios, glass conservatory, tennis court, and play and BBQ areas.

What makes this property unique

Central London at your doorstep. Access to Private Garden Square. Many amenities -- complimentary spirits bar, complimentary private car service airport pick up for stays of 7 nights or more, welcome baskets with drinks and snacks, robes, slippers, toiletries provided.
