Overview

First Impressions

The Stylish flat with garden in Notting Hill sits on a tree-lined stretch of Westbourne Park Road, and honestly, you’d walk right past it if you didn’t know what you were looking for. That’s actually part of its charm — it feels like you’re staying in a proper London neighborhood rather than some touristy bubble. The Victorian terrace house blends seamlessly into the streetscape, but step inside and you’ll find a beautifully converted apartment that manages to feel both contemporary and respectfully period-appropriate.

The Space Itself

This four-star flat really delivers on the “stylish” part of its name. The open-plan living area flows naturally, with large windows that flood the space with light — something you definitely appreciate during London’s grayer months. The kitchen is surprisingly well-equipped for what’s essentially a boutique rental; I mean, you’ve got everything you need if you want to grab ingredients from the nearby Portobello Market and actually cook something decent.

The room setup works brilliantly for couples or solo travelers who want space to spread out. There’s this lovely sense of living like a local rather than just passing through, which I think comes from the thoughtful design choices — nothing feels hotel-generic or overly branded.

The Garden Advantage

Here’s where this place really shines: that private garden is an absolute gem. It’s not huge, but in this part of London, having any outdoor space feels like hitting the jackpot. You can sit out there with your morning coffee and actually hear birds instead of just traffic — pretty remarkable when you’re still so close to central London. The garden furniture is comfortable enough that you’ll find yourself lingering out there longer than planned.

Neighborhood Perks

The location puts you right in the heart of proper Notting Hill living. Portobello Road is literally a few minutes’ walk away, and I’m talking about the bits where locals actually shop, not just the weekend antique circus. There’s a brilliant little café called Gail’s around the corner that does excellent pastries, and honestly, the whole area has this village-y feel that makes you forget you’re in one of the world’s biggest cities.

Parking can be tricky around here — it’s mostly permit zones — but the tube connections are so good you probably won’t need a car anyway. Ladbroke Grove and Westbourne Park stations are both walkable, which gives you options for getting around.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets this place apart is how it strikes that perfect balance between being centrally located and genuinely peaceful. You’re not dealing with the chaos of staying right in tourist central, but you can still get to Oxford Street or Covent Garden in about twenty minutes on the tube. The flat feels like somewhere you could actually live for a week or two, not just crash between sightseeing sessions. Plus, there’s something quite satisfying about having your own front door key in London — it makes the whole experience feel more authentic and less transactional than your typical hotel stay.

"I had a wonderful time in London and stayed at “garden in Notting Hill” made even more pleasant"
It is in a great location in turn of good neighbourhood, clean; closed to many cafes, restaurants and shopping. The premise is very well set up where we truely feel like home; it has a great back courtyard but sadly we didn’t get to use it because of the bloody cold weather. It’s by far the best airBNB I’ve used so far ( just over 20 ! ) plus fact that we were allowed to check in 3 hours earlier, so thank you.
What could be improved: As I mentioned in my feedback earlier, could do with a small microwave, 1-2 hooks behind the bathroom door so we can hang clothe when we about to show and a small peeler. These are not major issues

"Lovely flat but limited service."
Location was excellent. Very comfortable.
What could be improved: Entrance was steep and slippery when wet; not lit up continuously (motion sensor only came on towards the bottom of the step); leaves were never cleared from the steps; serious slip danger. Only one tea towel provided.

"Great location for exploring London!"
Great location within 5 minutes walking distance to Portabello Road and the Underground! Nice big apartment to spread out and chill for a few days while you explore London. There's a little grocery shop across the street so you can put the kitchen to good use if you are so inclined. Highly recommend the Butter Cafe & Bakery across the street for a lovely morning coffee and pastries! The apartment was quiet, clean, secure and safe and we enjoyed our down time here in between musicals in the city! Would definitely stay here again when in London!

"Excellent in every way !"
Perfect location , very nicely maintained , clean apartment , very well equipped ! It is a real home ! Nice artwork on the wall. The communication was perfect , everything went very easy ! We recommend this property 100%.
What could be improved: The only issue is that it is on the ground floor but that is compensated by the access to garden ! There was no disturbing noise from the street and there is enough light . So all in all even that is not an issue.

"Enjoyed the apartment and would stay there again if I return to London."
It was within walking distance to a tube station. Lots of restaurants close by in notting hill. Loved portobello market for ethnic food. Beds were very comfortable.
What could be improved: The entrance needed to be swept of garbage and the cobwebs in the backyard should have been cleared. The window shade in the small bedroom didn’t work.

"Nice slightly overprized flat."
The flat is nice. The garden unkept and shabby. Nice location. A lot of stress around check in as I did not get the video that would describe how to get the key. Had to call them three times.
