Paloma’s apartment is wonderful- had everything we dreamt of including a rather large balcony with early afternoon sun, shade and some air during the very hot days and green plants.
I stayed for 4 days with my girlfriend and worked from home at the desk in the bedroom on the weekdays.
Plenty if room for us both.
Very well laid out apartment- nice with personal touches and a modern decor. TV had many channels and Apps and very well functioning internet / fiber connection.
Area is really really nice- the canal and brentford lock around the corner, scenic walks in the area.
Surprisingly many really nice places to go: Weir (7 mins away), Feather & Heart (5 mins away) - both recommended by Paloma.
We also highly enjoyed ‘the black dog beer house- excellent variety of beer and amazing food. We sat in the back garden, the front room also looked really nice. 15 mins away, 2 blocks past Morrison’s or a stroll past the old church and the park/ playground 1 street further away from high street.
Rye by the water- a great bakery and good coffee and a nice view on the canal. Behind the construction site south of High Street and past some car workshops and the sales office for the new building. Google maps willl try to take you on a long detour- as it hasnt registered the road and footpath next to the construction site yet.
We also had dinner at Siracusa- food was excellent (we had steaks and shrimps and patan for starters. Many others had pizza. A little to well visited and large noisy crowds- some GSK dinners taking place on a Monday evening. We sat outside towards the canal with a view- pretty busy here as well and quickly filled up. Walk ways was splattered with duck/ geese turd. We liked it- but wouldnt go again for a quiet night and also double as expensive as Weir or Black dog.
We also wanted to go to the Indian around the corner- food and reviews looked good and well visited later in the evenings. But it was locked due to the hot weather the evening we wanted to go.
Morrison’s was a nice supermarket- 12-15 minutes away. Huge, well stocked and also organic/ butcher/ fish department.
We would definitely come back to Paloma’s, when next time in west london or heading for another game at brentford stadium
