Situated in Kensington, the home is perfectly placed for exploring some of London’s most desirable neighbourhoods. High Street Kensington, Notting Hill, and Holland Park are all within easy reach, offering an array of boutiques, cafés, and restaurants, as well as beautiful green spaces. Excellent transport links nearby make it easy to access the rest of London, while the quiet residential setting ensures a relaxing retreat at the end of the day.
A visit to Kensington Gardens is a must and is one of the capital's eight Royal Parks and home to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, aka, William and Kate. Kensington Palace is at the heart of Kensington Gardens, and there is nothing better than a picnic in front of the palace. For your picnic food, head to the Whole Foods flagship store on Kensington High Street or the Marks & Spencer's food hall, just next door. Kensington High Street is one of London's most popular shopping destinations bursting with wonderful shops, cafes and restaurants and is usually less crowded than Oxford Street.
For superb dining, head to the Belvedere restaurant in Holland Park, or Il Portico - an upmarket Italian. To drink, the Kensington Wine Rooms have a wide and carefully chosen selection of wines and also offer nibbles and tapas. The waiters are charming and friendly and have a particular interest in South African wine (though there is plenty of European/ US wine too!) Alternatively, Kensington Roof Terrace has great cocktails, food and has an amazing rooftop garden.

Reviews
Erica,
It's a great location. We even met the neighbor who was so welcoming and friendly. It had all of the basic necessities and was the perfect size for 2 people. Host's were super communicative and responsive.
Alessandra,
Best option for renting a vacation flat in London. Great choice of properties, always top quality in terms of decor, style and location. We especially recommend it for the price to quality ratio (top location at a good price) and for the very friendly and attentive customer service. We have been using Ivy Lettings for many years and will continue to do so, and we recommend it to friends and family for their London stays.
Vanessa,
Location, location, location. This flat on a quiet residential leafy street, is situated 7 mins from two tube stations. With the windows open you here...nothing! But at the end of the street, you can stop in to an italian coffee shop. An excellent pub is also within 5 mins walk. Various local shops provide exactly what you need
Adriaan,
Repeat visit - perfect location and place
Dan,
The location was great for our visit to London. Nearby restaurants bus stops and tube stations were very walkable. The rental was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. I would stay here again
Geoffrey,
We had a wonderful stay over the holidays the flat is in an amazing location, easy to get everywhere. Having the bedroom downstairs allowed all of us to have some separate space, which was great while travelling with our teenager. Will definitely stay here again
Brett,
Amazing stay. We loved the location for a couples holiday. Thank you.
Wikus,
We had a wonderful stay at the apartment! It met our expectations. The space was clean and well-maintained, and we appreciated the fast and unlimited wifi. While we didn't use the kitchen or appliances, they were in good working order. The bathroom was also clean and provided us with hot water throughout our stay. The bedding was comfortable, although we prefer firmer mattresses and pillows. Nonetheless, we still enjoyed restful nights of sleep. The apartment's location was the best part for us. Tucked away on a peaceful street, it offered a serene and tranquil environment. Returning to the apartment felt like stepping into a peaceful sanctuary. The proximity to Earl's Court underground station made it incredibly convenient, and we were spoiled for choice with fantastic restaurants and convenient stores nearby. Thank you for the wonderful experience!
Michele,
The Ivy team does everything right. Excellent communication, professional management of reservations, consistency, and honestly. I will never go with another rental company. The Stratford Road property is a true gem. In a perfect location, clean, comfortable, and quiet. I never felt like I was a guest. I felt like I was home. I’ve had the very best experience with Ivy Lettings this summer. This is the first of three properties I’ve rented this year and I cannot be happier with my choice.
Mariam,
We loved this apartment! Great location, very comfortable and spacious. Quiet and peaceful neighborhood but still easy access to all of London’s greatest areas.
Melissa,
This Kensington flat is utterly charming . The sitting room is spacious and equipped with a large dining table which was excellent for me as it served as both a dining area and a place to do all my paperwork. The kitchen is compact and well appointed. This floor has a picturesque view of the terraced Victorian houses behind it with climbing rose and ivy over the back wall. The bedroom downstairs is quiet and spacious with a comfortable bed. This is a superb location with easy proximity to the underground and local bus lines and Hyde Park nearby.
Deanna,
Enjoyed my stay at this lovely & peaceful flat in a gorgeous & walkable neighborhood. Greatly appreciated that the management team were accommodating with changes to the dates of my stay. Very much recommend to others!
Safrina,
Thank you for hosting us the past 7 nights. Everything was wonderful and we really appreciated the flexible check in and check out times especially with a small toddler. We especially love the location of the flat and the surroundings and will definitely recommend others to stay here. Once again thank you!
