2 bedroom flat with garden in Notting Hill
First Impressions
The 2 bedroom flat with garden in Notting Hill sits on a quiet residential street that feels worlds away from the tourist chaos, even though you’re right in the heart of one of London’s most coveted neighborhoods. St Luke’s Road is one of those streets where locals actually live — you know, the kind where you’ll see people walking their dogs and chatting with neighbors rather than posing for Instagram shots.
The Space
This four-star apartment genuinely feels like staying in someone’s well-loved home rather than a sterile rental. The two bedrooms are thoughtfully laid out, and honestly, the kitchen is better equipped than most London flats I’ve seen — which means you can actually cook a proper meal if you want to save some money (and let’s face it, London dining adds up quickly). What really sets this place apart though is that little garden out back. I mean, private outdoor space in London? That’s practically unheard of, especially in this area.
Location & Neighborhood
You’re about a fifteen-minute walk from Portobello Road, which puts you close enough to hit the famous market on Saturdays but far enough away that you won’t be dealing with crowds every time you step outside. The nearest tube is a bit of a walk — maybe ten minutes to either Hammersmith or West Kensington — but that’s actually part of the charm. This part of London feels residential and authentic, not like you’re staying in the middle of a theme park.
What Makes It Special
The garden becomes your morning coffee spot and evening wind-down space, which is something you just can’t put a price on when you’re staying in a city this dense. There’s something about having your own little patch of green space that makes the whole London experience feel less overwhelming. The room layouts work well too — the bedrooms are separate enough that you’re not stepping on each other if you’re traveling with friends or family, and there’s actual living space to spread out.
Why Guests Love It
People keep coming back to this place because it strikes that perfect balance between being accessible to everything London offers while giving you a proper retreat at the end of the day. You’re not paying hotel prices for tiny spaces, and you’re certainly not dealing with shared facilities or paper-thin walls. The neighborhood has great local pubs — the kind where you might actually strike up a conversation with someone — and you’re close enough to central London that nothing feels out of reach, but far enough out that you get a real sense of how Londoners actually live.
You'll need to let the property know in advance what time you'll arrive.
