Well equipped apartment in the heart of Kensington, very close to shops and amenities. A very large terrace which has sunshine all day. Good for outdoor living with south facing roof garden and lots of seating. Master bedroom has large fully fitted wardrobe. All beds fitted with top quality bed linen, hotel standard. There are at least 3 gyms which are walking distance away who would welcome short term members. One has a swimming pool. The apartment has it own front door on street level. It is a quiet neighbourhood street, very safe and friendly with a village atmosphere. The reason for no recent reviews is because it has been let long term for the last 4 years. However you can read my excellent reviews on my other London property which is close by and is listing number 1080505 on the VRBO website.

the kitchen was well stocked and the host provided us with a blender.The internet was poor, but that wasn't a big problem for us.The stairs were a bit of a surprise...very steep and narrow, again not a problem for us but those with mobility issues would be advised to look elsewhere.The area was quiet and well connected for local transport.We enjoyed walking in the area, and felt comfortable at night.The host was very helpful!
We had a lovely stay at Eve’s charming flat. The location can’t be beat and the configuration of the flat worked well for 3 friends of a certain age. I would definitely book again.
This place was beautiful well stocked great location. The owner was very helpful giving tips on where to go. What to see. It was spacious and felt like home.
The owner was wonderful, a lovely person and very, very, accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble for her to take care of. We felt that we were in good hands should problems arise. The apartment is in need of a revamp/touchup and some of the kitchen saucepans etc. could do with a good clean/replacement. There are sound-blocking windows (double windows) on the bedrooms which work well at night (i.e. given the proximity to major roads), although closing the windows restricts cross ventilation airflow in the bedrooms.
Eve was very responsive and helpful. The apartment is very well located in Kensington and has many nice restaurants in the area. Its extremely walkable. Two metro spots close by. The Kensington High Street will take you to most of the landmarks that are further away.
Perfect home away from home; I have already recommended to friends. The apartment is as presented in the photos (the main bedroom is actually bigger than the photo suggests) and our family of five was very comfortable (Ms 14 was very happy sleeping on the couch). Eve, the host, is outstanding! Warm, friendly, responsive and very helpful. Eve went out of her way to help us and we are very grateful. It was wonderful to have two bathrooms with great hot water and the outdoor roof terrace was great on a hot evening. I have no hesitation recommending this place. We loved our stay and I absolutely would stay again!
We loved the flat, especially the outdoor space. Eve was very helpful on arrival and I appreciated her help with my bags. The location is great, close to public transportation, restaurants and shopping. It is a space I could live in.
Exactly as advertised. Easy check in process and walking distance to several public transportation options. The set up worked well for our family of 5 and the kids loved visiting Holland Park in the evenings.
We really enjoyed staying at this flat! Restaurants and pubs maybe 20-30 min walk away. Kensington Olympia tube station 10 min walk. Great living room and kitchen, steep stairs to main level then bedrooms but nice main bedroom and guest bathroom. Host was very responsive about nearby restaurants and dealing with minor electrical and wifi issues. A gem in London!
We loved our stay! The house is very bright, the beds and comforters are very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped. Our hostess couldn't have been nicer and more attentive. We recommend it!
Well located, lovely flat with easy access to tube stations. Eve was a wonderful guest and met us right on time as planned. She is great to communicate with and would highly recommend this property for your stay in London.
We loved our stay in this Kensington apartment. The neighborhood was quiet with easy access to many dining and shopping options. The closest tube station, High Street Kensington, was 15m walk. The unit has living room and kitchen on the 2nd floor and bedrooms and toilets on the 3rd floor. There are two sets of stairs connecting the street entrance to the upper floors. We were fine with the layout once we got used to it. Eve was a gracious and helpful host. Thank you.
Purpose of our family vacation to London from the US was to visit as many historical sites and soccer stadiums as possible. We needed a place that was clean and comfortable for recharging in the evenings and get a great nights rest. We only used the condo to sleep as we were gone all day exploring the city. With this said, my teens gave the beds a 10 out of 10. The condo had two floors and although an older unit had lots of character and charm. The condo has two flights of stairs which were steep and narrow but the handrails and paying attention to your footing doesn't make them an issue. I gave 4 stars for location because of the distance to the Underground stop, however the morning walks through Holland Park was lovely and location in regards to all the historic sites were fine. West Kensington was a great place for food and shopping. The best feature of this condo was our host, Eve. It was as if we had our own personal tour guide. She was quick to respond to my texts and offer advice on places to eat and visit. We all agreed this condo was awesome and we would stay here again on our next visit.

Great little flat in Kensington
The apartment was exactly as advertised, perfect for our family of four with two teenagers. Convenient with underground station within a 10-15 min walk, and a pub around the corner. The Londis next door was also great for getting daily necessities. The only complaint I have is the washer/dryer combo, which could not dry our clothes without running the cycle 2-3 times.
Fabulous property, great location, easy communication with Yvonne. We have stayed at this property before- enjoying being in Kensington but just a short distance from the hubbub and close to Holland Park. Transport is excellent. The apartment is spread over two floors with large lounge room and kitchen and small terrace on first floor and two bedrooms on second. The property has two bathrooms which is really helpful. We live this place. There is a Londis two doors up meaning you don’t have to go far to get your basic essentials and the pub on the corner has great food. Highly recommend this property.

Lovely and convenient property
My teenage twins and I stayed here for a week during their fall break and felt completely at home. The property is clean and comfortable with all essential amenities. The location cannot be beat. It is in a quiet area but only a short walk to the train and the bus which will have you to Trafalgar Square in 30 minutes. Yvonne is quite responsive and very helpful with tips such as where to get groceries etc...We had no difficulty with the stairs, and it was nice having 2 bathrooms. We enjoyed the corner pub on two occasions after a long day of traversing the city which has a nice atmosphere. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend renting this property!

Loved this flat!
This was a wonderful spot and we are so grateful to have found it. The apartment was clean and comfortable, and the property manager could not have been nicer! While there were more stairs than we'd realized (to get up to the flat and then up to the bedrooms), this was not a problem for our family and we loved that the back patio was raised up a floor and private. I enjoyed my coffee there each morning before a packed day in London, and it was a real treat to spend a week in this lovely part of Kensington. We LOVED getting to know Holland Park and the beautiful streets around it, and once we got the bus routes down we found this location to be absolutely ideal! We hope to return in the near future!
