Nice tiny kitchenette. Good location of the appartment, line 9 stops nearby that brings you straight to Piccadilly circus. Bed was super! Only 1 suggestion: put up some curtains at the little indows, they let in too much light. But further: great, I'd recommend it!!!

Quiet refuge when visiting London. Coming back to the flat each evening was a joy. Everything you need for breakfast and lunch. High street is 2 minute walk. Great shopping. #9 bus is on high street which will get you to all the tourist spots. Grocery stores/pubs/coffee very close.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Kensington Gardens Studio Cottage! The space is clean, cozy, and very quiet — a real retreat in the middle of London. The little kitchenette was so cute and well equipped, perfect for making breakfast or a light meal. The location is great, just steps from Kensington High Street with shops and a wide variety of restaurants within easy walking distance, yet the cottage itself feels calm and private. Suna was a fantastic host — warm, attentive, and made everything effortless. We’d happily stay here again!

The studio was perfect for our week in London. From the cleverly outfitted kitchen to the thoughtful use of space, comfortable furnishings, and in-room library complete with London tour books. Check in and check out were incredibly easy. Communication before and during our stay was easy and immediate. The location is ideal; an easy walk to tube stations, grocery, restaurants, and shopping. Be sure to check out the corner bar/restaurant The Hand and Flower and Ffiona’s up on Kensington Church St for a memorable meal.

Cute little cottage in a nice area. Wasn't clear we were going to be sharing a backyard with the owners, which was fine but would've been nice to know before. It was a bit loud at night and the bathroom was small / toilet flush broke when we were there.

Cozy hideaway

We spent five wonderful days in this cozy cottage. We explored the area by walking to several different underground stations. Suna and her family were wonderful hosts and they graciously accommodated a few requests. Communication was very quick. We found our London getaway.

Kensington gem

This property is in a good neighborhood within walking distance to mass transit, great shopping and plenty of dining options. It makes a perfect base for exploring all London has to offer. The cottage itself is very comfortable and well outfitted for a short or long term stay. And Suna is an absolutely lovely host! She is always ready with fabulous local knowledge and recommendations. We would definitely stay here again!

Nice, clean and comfortable

Easy to find and easy to check in. The apartment is well equipped and had everything we need. Only negative, and very minor negative, was the 15 minute walk to the underground. Buses were closer but when mapping locations it was faster to walk and take the metro.

Why they chose this property

The main house is a beautiful Georgian house with a blue historic a row of Georgian houses. The studio cottage to the rear of our house is light and airy close to many amenities but off a quiet residential street on a mews and very close to High St Kensington and enjoys all the benefits of Kensington.

What makes this property unique

It is light and airy with high ceilings roof window lights as well as windows and doors to the garden.
