My children and I spent two lovely days in Robert's home in Notting Hill before we went off to the Cotwalds. It was the best Airbnb stay we had for several reasons. The first that comes to mind is this is a wonderful, family home, with beautiful art, a gorgeous kitchen, and thoughtful touches - a far cry from other places I've stayed at that have felt a bit soulless. The location is amazing, it is a five minute walk to the best bits of Westbourne Grove, from getting beautiful takeaway salads from Ottolenghi (get the pistachio polenta cake), Goop and Bodyism for wellness/yummy smoothies, an organic store (Daylesfords), and the best bolognnaise my son claims to have ever had at local Italian Chuc's. After a morning run I realised how close it was too to Portobello market, so we were able to have a quick glimpse the morning we departed. The house is on a quiet residential street too, but only 10 minutes walk to the tube station. The other pluses were: a gorgeous terrace to sit outside in, air-conditioning in the house, which we were really happy to have as it was a warm week in London (we stayed in August). Check in was smooth, everything in the house worked like a charm, and communication before as well as check in was handled by a lovely woman named Ruth, who was very helpful. I'd recommend this home -- and I hope next time we come to London it is available, I can't think of a better nest to land in after a long journey to London. Best, Tanya
