Close to tube station, quiet corner of W10
Overlooking a quiet pretty square, my place is only two minutes' walk from the tube station, easy walking distance to the famous Portobello Markets and there are a number of pubs, cafes & grocery shops near by.  <br />*** Discounts for stays over a week ***<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />Before arrival I will send you a map to my flat, personally drawn by myself!<br /><br />PLEASE NOTE: Because I use hotspot on my mobile for the internet I will provide you with a Dongle to help you access the internet.<br /><br />TRAVEL INFORMATION:<br />The local tube station (Latimer Road) is served by the Circle line and the Hammersmith & City line.  Both of these lines will take you directly to Paddington station in about 15 minutes.  <br /><br />It takes 30 minutes to Oxford Circus, with one change for the Bakerloo line at Baker Street.  To get to Covent Garden change at Hammersmith and then the Piccadilly line; altogether it takes about 30 minutes.  For Camden Town change at Kings Cross then tw
There is a fab pub across from the tube station, called The Garden.  It has a lovely garden particularly in the summer with lovely mature trees.  They serve great food too.  <br /><br />For garden lovers I would highly recommend Museum of Brands. Tucked away at the back is a small tropical garden, a wonderful haven.  I think it has even won awards!  It's only a 5 minute walk from my place.<br /><br />Less than 10 minutes walk away there is the KPH pub.  Recently refurbished, they are open late on the weekends, do pub quizzes and live music as well as serving food.<br /><br />Close by there are plenty of grocery shops, cafes, a bakers, a florists and a public park.  The park is a 10 minute walk away.  Not far from the park is my Kitchen Garden plot if you fancy some gardening!  Another peaceful haven.<br /><br />If you'd like to take a break from being a tourist for a while, there is a sports centre a couple of minutes walk away, under the fly-over, which does tennis, football, squash a
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!
