ON YOUR DOORSTEP
A very smart and sought-after street in London, big white family homes are intersperced with trees and flowers. At the end of the road is the tree lined Holland Park Avenue. There you will find the best butcher in London, Lidgates, as well as bookshops, a famous upmarket grocery selling Champgnes and English cheeses and other delicious produce; a Maison Blanc, Paul; Starbucks and Giraffe. There is also a Tesco with an ATM. This vacation home backs onto the famous leafy expanse of Holland Park, this property gives you central London living with the added bonus of plenty of outdoor space on your doorstep. Holland Park even has some resident cows; see if you can spot them while you’re in town!
Perhaps you will spend Saturday exploring the eclectic and bustling Portobello Road Market, a 15 minute walk away. Originally a lane leading to Portobello Farm, its sides now burst at the seams with antiques, vintage fashion stores and bakeries and boasts some of the world’s best-loved stalls. The Portobello Green Fashion Market runs Thursday through to Sunday. Or head to Golborne Road for tempting food produce in the week, and first class bric-a-brac and second hand items at the weekend.
Just a fifteen-minute walk away you will find another one of London’s famous green spaces, Hyde Park. Here you can ride horses, hire rowing boats on the Serpentine Lake and enjoy views of Kensington Palace. Just a 5-minute walk from Holland Park tube station, this property is located within easy reach of a multitude of boutique coffee shops, grocery stores, ATMs and excellent transport links into Central London and the West End with all its museums, theatres and high-end shopping.
This beautiful one bedroom apartment in one of Holland Park’s covetable white mansion blocks is a short walk from the tube. This is one of Ivy's most deluxe London vacation rentals, and a hit on our Ivy Instagram page. It's ideal for couples over in London for a romantic break.

Lovely Historic Holland Park Flat This is a lovely flat. The 12 foot high ceilings and furnishings give the place a classic late 19th century feel. One of the key features is the comfortable 5ft wide bed with a 9 foot high canopy, which fits perfectly in the room’s décor, with windows to the back garden. We only used the back garden once, but we heard the birds singing in the mornings. The kitchen is fully furnished. We mostly used the kitchen for breakfast and late night snacks and ate some of our meals at the friendly local pub, The Castle. We enjoyed walking through the park which is adjacent to the flat. It is only a short walk to the tube station for the Central Line which made it easy to get to plays, shopping, and everywhere we wanted to go in London. On returning we often stopped at the shops by the tube station for groceries or a night cap. The fireplace, TV, internet, heating, and hot water all worked fine. Ivy was a terrific host and quickly answered all our questions. They updated us as we got close to arrival, arranged an easy key pick-up and check-out. We would definitely recommend the Holland Park flat and Ivy to anyone wanting a convenient and classic British stay in London.

A fantasy London home, with those red velvet curtains and handwoven rugs. We felt treated, especially with Ivy Lettings' attentive service. We were looked after by Hannah, who chose this home for us because it's close to Holland Park station and could take us to both Bond Street and Liverpool station, near our son, directly on the tube. Obviously Holland Park itself is stunning and gave us the English-feel we were after. All in all a really pleasant stay and a superb house.

So glamorous! A most luxurious stay in London and Holland Park. My favourite park in London, Holland Park, just round the corner. I have rented many apartments in London but this just the best I have found. I like that the owner's style comes through - a hotel room like this would be so hard to find for this price. Another very satisfying stay with Ivy Lettings.
