Great location

We stayed at the property for a week, exploring London with our two children. The location is great, on a quiet residential street between Kensington High Street and Earl's Court, with convenient access to shops, buses and Tube stations. We loved the private patio, which forms a natural extention of the flat and is a great place to relax after a day of sightseeing.
