HOME WITHIN A HOME, with Private Kitchen, in West Kensington With its own FULLY FITTED KITCHEN for your sole use, a private bathroom, this 1 bedroom flatlet within our own home is perfect for the independent single tourist, business traveller or mature student visitor wishing to be in the heart of London. It has easy access to the underground \[“the tube”\] at West Kensington \[4 minutes’ walk\] and Baron’s Court \[8 minutes’ walk\]. The Olympia Exhibition Centre is a 3 minute walk away. Kensington High Street? 8 minutes on foot, by bus 3 minutes. Buses are many and within a 2 – 4 minute walk from here. THE SPACE – Generally: Located on a quiet residential West Kensington street, our well-appointed flatlet is perfect for the independent traveller or business visitor and offers all the comforts of home, office facilities too if needed \[see below\]. It is accessed via a shared \[with us\] front entrance door and has its own door within our quarters and so is completely private. The flatlet \[18.70 sq. m/201 sq. ft\] comprises a single bedroom \[overlooking the pretty garden\], private bathroom and fully fitted kitchen for your exclusive use. The rooms will be professionally cleaned, the linens changed, once a week during your stay. The flatlet is served by BT Infinity fibre optic Wi-Fi and has its own landline telephone. THE FLATLET – In Detail: SINGLE BEDROOM - with fitted wardrobes, hangers, a hair dryer, a laptop friendly desk and chair, landline ‘phone, a side chair, alarm clock and a Smart TV. \[Bed 3ft/91cm wide.\] Generous bedding, linen and towels are provided with a choice of summer or winter weight duvets. Non-feather pillows can be provided – just let me know at time of booking. THE KITCHEN - contains fitted units, a breakfast bar, electric oven, gas hob, microwave, ‘fridge, sink, toaster, kettle, cafetiere \[French press\], combined washer/dryer, cutlery, utensils, china, glass, pots, pans – an electric mixer if you wish to bake a cake! – and all the usual kitchen paraphernalia \[tea, coffee, salt, pepper, oil, herbs and spices etc.,\] that you have at home in your kitchen. THE PRIVATE BATHROOM – fitted with hand basin, lavatory, bath and hand-shower. Drying rack for those items you do not wish to put into the tumble drier. Shampoo, conditioner, soaps, tissues, cotton buds and cotton pads are also provided for your use so no need to pack those.. GARDEN – there is direct access from your kitchen to the pretty, brick paved garden which you are free to use; it has a table, chairs, an external power supply and garden lighting. I am very happy if guests wish to entertain business colleagues or friends there but, being considerate of the neighbours, no loud music out there, please. ALSO PROVIDED: An iron and ironing board, FM radio, central heating for the winter, a fan if the summer weather gets hot and a convector heater if those nights are chilly. US & EU to UK electric plug convertors, an umbrella and other useful bits and pieces. Carbon monoxide detector and smoke alarms are also installed, together with a fire extinguisher and a ‘simple to use’ burglar alarm which covers the flatlet and our personal quarters. A Gas Safety inspection is undertaken annually, a copy of which is within the flatlet. EDIBLES on Arrival: In order that you do not need to go shopping immediately upon arrival, I will provide you with milk, eggs, cheddar cheese, bread, butter, yoghourts, cereals, OJ, bottled water and fruit, marmalade and jam, tea, ground and instant coffee too. Pasta and a pasta sauce, tinned tuna, crisp breads and other dry goods are also supplied so you can make yourself a quick supper if you have been working late or have been tramping around museums and have had no time to shop. If you have any dietary preferences \[i.e., you prefer gluten free bread, or regarding the type of milk you prefer\], then do let me know. OVERNIGHT GUEST? A good, comfy Intex inflatable bed is available for the occasional weekend or over-night visitor if you are a long-stay guest \[2 weeks+\] but only with our prior approval. There will be a nominal charge for this additional guest, the laundry and cleaning. OFFICE FACILITIES? As I run my business from here, I have a printer, scanner, office stationery, stamps etc and will be pleased to help you with anything you may require for your business or travel purposes. RESIDENT CAT We have a one of these. See photo on listing. Whilst he just loves people he is not allowed into your quarters so you may only see him in the garden via the bedroom window or as you come and go through our shared front door/stairs to your quarters. Clearly, if you are allergic to cats, then this is not the accommodation for you as there will be “fur on the breeze”. SMOKING No smoking is allowed in your rooms though you may do so in the garden. HOUSE RULES We have no ‘house rules’ per se, excepting mutual respect and consideration for each other. THE NEIGHBOURHOOD This part of West Kensington is predominantly residential and so is very quiet. Public transport of all types is within just a few minutes’ distance. I have lived in West Ken for 30+ years and walking here, day or night, has never been a concern. North End Road market is close by \[4 minute bus ride, 10 minute walk\]; Kensington High Street is on our doorstep \[3 minute bus ride, 8 minute walk\] as is the Westfield Shopping Mall \[6 minutes by tube; Westfield has cinemas, restaurants, bars as well as great shops\]. There is too much around here to put in writing now so – come and explore! GETTING AROUND Getting around London \[or within the UK\] is very easy from here as we are SO central. You will find a broad range of travel books, maps, transportation literature in your quarters to help you during your visit. Do buy yourself a “Visitor's Oyster Card” for London’s public transport travel as soon as you arrive at London Heathrow - or you can do this on line \[via “Transport for London”\] before your arrival. Alternatively, if you have a 'contactless' credit or debit card, this works the same as the Visitor's Oyster card on all London’s public transport. BIKE HIRE There are several racks of “bikes to hire” in the neighbourhood, all within walking distance. Ask me and I’ll give you detail of their locations. ABOUT US and GUEST INTERACTION Our maisonette comprises 2 \[combined\] flats; we live on the raised ground floor, your flatlet and my office \[I work from home as an interior designer\] is on a level with the garden. We have been letting the flatlet for over 25 years and whilst your privacy will be fully respected, I am around during the weekdays \[we are usually away at weekends\] to answer any questions, advise on ‘what to see’ in London and the UK, or to just have a chat if you wish! We love having guests here to stay and will make you feel ‘at home’ \[or leave you alone\] as much or as little as you wish. FINDING US Reaching us from London Heathrow Airport is simple. Take the train from LHR to Baron’s Court \[Piccadilly line\] and then change platforms and take the District Line train for the one stop journey to West Kensington. There is then only a 4 minute walk to us. \[Also see “Getting Around” above.\] CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT TIMES We'll be as flexible as we can regarding check-in and check-out times, subject other guest's bookings of course. STEPS Please note that there are 6 steps to walk up from the street to the main front door and then 12 down to access the garden floor; consequently, the accommodation may not suit those who are frail or infirm. YOUR OWN INSURANCE Seems obvious to say, but please ensure you have adequate insurance to cover both your travel plans and your personal belongings. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation -

Thanks so much for making my first trip to London a delight! ##### Amanda H. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### madeleine g.

Very close to the tube system. Easy to get around. The hosts are wonderful, friendly, and helpful. I will definitely stay here again when traveling solo!! ##### madeleine g.

She is warm and welcoming and as a solo traveler it was nice to say hi in the morning and then hi again in the evening on my return. She was always interested in how my day went and had helpful suggestions. She is good at checking in but not in an overbearing way. Trish is an excellent communicator and was there when I arrived to guide me through their own apartment and give me a tour of the rental. The "flatlet" is just the right size for one person with a kitchen which I loved because I make my own breakfast and pack a lunch. The kitchen was basic and had everything I needed. The rental itself is clean; I would say adequately clean. All the important areas such as the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom were comfortably clean, and the bed itself was also comfortable. I was there in late October and so didn't open any windows. The apartment is in the basement of the building, and it has a musty smell. I think if the weather allowed me to open windows, it wouldn't smell as musty. As I said it's in the basement, but the ceilings are high and there are many windows - kitchen, bath and bedroom. So, you don't feel like it's a basement. The location is amazing! So close to two underground stops and not far from a small Sainsbury and a little bit further to a full-on Tesco. And the street the rental is on is truly quiet; I never heard traffic or any other noise from the street. ##### Beth I. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jasmin W.

The location is great, short walk away from the underground and I felt very safe when walking to and from on my own. Trish is a great host who welcomed me I from the get go and was very kind and friendly. If I’m coming to London again I will definitely look into staying here again! :) ##### Jasmin W.

Fabulous host! The flat is spacious and has everything you could possibly need to feel comfortable and completely at home. The garden is right outside the bedroom window and was my place to have morning tea. I could have happily moved in permanently! ##### Barb W.

I did not have any difficulty with access although note that the description on the listing of stairs to access is correct, this could be tricky if you are not able bodied. Trish was extremely helpful and accommodating both with check in and ensuring I had everything I needed to make my stay very comfortable. I was extremely happy in my time there. ##### Erica R.

If you’re looking for a cozy little nest, close to everything and especially the Tube look no further! And Trish is the absolute best ever. Friendly and helpful. Super nice person. She even stocked the fridge with basics! I had a grand time! ##### susan r. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LINDA W.

I showed up a little the worse for wear and Trish went out of her way to see that I was made comfortable and had all I required. The pretty garden is a joy to wake up to. The flatlet has everything you need. The kitchen is very well stocked. Both Trish and Kim are levels people and Ozzy, the cat, a perfect gentleman. ##### LINDA W.

Trish and Kim will look out for you. If your single there's security staying there. The location is close to a tube station and that was really great. Oh, by the way, Ozzie the cat loves chicken :) ##### Marguerite W. Stayed 21 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Angela G. Oct 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing location Wonderful area to explore, also easy access to underground and transport to other areas of London. Host very responsive and helpful. Flat very small but comfortable. I’d echo the other reviews I’ve read re the bathroom situation - adding a fixed shower head and curtain would make things more practical for guests. Wifi also a big issue, as I’ve read in other reviews - little to no wifi access and mobile data patchy while in flat. However, overall a comfortable, well located and welcoming stay. ##### Angela G.

Trish the owner is fantastic. She is always there if you need her and very accommodating to your needs. The apartment kitchen is nicely equipped and Trish had stocked the fridge with an abundance of things so I didn’t have to go out shopping immediately. Had a wonderful time in the adorable flat. Would gladly be a repeat customer!! ##### Mary A. Stayed 8 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### MARIA H.

No room if you have large suitcase, especially if having to navigate narrow small stairs. Felt cleaning standards could have been of a higher standard. standard. ##### MARIA H.

Exceptional, very kind, thoughtful, gracious hosts that truly go above and beyond to ensure their guest is well cared for and helped, when needed. I was vey comfortable staying in the flatlet and always felt safe coming back from a concert or an event. West Kensington Station is a pleasant walk away, great services are within close proximity. It is reasonably priced. Thank you Trish and Kim. I will be happy to stay with you upon returning to London. Anna Maria WK 🇨🇦 ##### Anna Maria W. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2023
