Delightful spacious flat 2 minutes from W10 tube
2 mins walk from the tube station, 2 mins walk to 2 grocery shops & a pub that serves great food. Close to the Portobello markets. Recent guests told me how quiet it is here. It overlooks a lovely square. Here's a flavour of what my guests say: "lovely & spacious place, great host, our stay was warm & pleasing, comfortable flat to come home to after a long day of sightseeing, highly recommend, thanks for a wonderful stay!"<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />The spacious south facing sitting room gets the full summer sun during the early part of the day.  It's a very peaceful space to just sit and unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. <br /><br />I love to cook so the kitchen cupboards are well stocked with spices and condiments and plenty of pots and pans and utensils.<br /><br />I recently changed my internet provider and am now using my mobile phone as a hotspot therefore I will arrange for your own personal dongle for access to the internet, during your stay. <br /><br />In the bedr
I love where I live.  It's so handy for the tube and I have a choice of two grocery shops two minutes away.  There is another grocery shop five minutes away that sells fruit and vegetables. There are also a number of coffee shops within easy walking distance.  My guests give great compliments about the food served in The Garden pub which has a great garden, too!  My home overlooks a lovely square of mature trees and shrubs and if you are lucky you might see a shy fox or two.
I moved from Dublin and I settled here in Notting Hill, 21 years ago.  I am so lucky to live in such a location, near to the buzz of Portobello and among such a wonderful community.  It has so much to offer.

I love cooking, mostly from scratch, eating foods within season & locally sourced, whenever possible.  We have a great farmer's market on Portobello Road. I'm an active member of our local Kitchen Garden Community where I can grow some of my own food - very satisfying. 

My other love is walking and photography; the two work well together.  There are really good areas around here for long walks.  Sometimes I walk from my flat, through Portobello and on to Hyde Park.  It only takes about 40 minutes.

I love visiting new places and do so as a member of Trusted House Sitters, taking care of a cats, chickens, etc!  Through their membership I secured a CRB certificate (now replaced by DBS) which adds peace of mind to potential home owners should they need me to mind their pets.

I love meeting people from different cultures and making them feel welcome in my home.  It's important to me that their stay is a pleasurable one, where their holiday experience is a positive one.  Sometimes my guests inspire me on where I should visit in London!

My latest love is learning to play the guitar - I love it!

Let me know if you are travelling on your own and would like me to be your personal tour guide, particularly in Notting Hill.  I have lots of suggestions such as the not-so-known spots.  Do you fancy visiting eco-minded shops or peaceful havens or even a local, intimate theatre just 10 minutes walk from my place?  I'd love to show you!
