Nelly’s flat in Kensington is very well located between tube stations of Nottinghill Gate and High Street Kensington. Buses around (1min walk) can take you anywhere to the Centre. If on a sunny day, you can take the bike (150 m away) for a ride through the Hyde Park. It is so close to all amenities yet so quiet. Groceries stores are very close which accommodate all kinds of needs (from Sainsbury, Tesco to Wholefoods). The neighbourhood is elegant and full of historic features. The flat itself is also elegant, bright, modern and fully equipped with high quality appliances and entertainment facilities (TV channels, radio, CDplayer and lots of CDs etc…..).
We stayed in the flat for three weeks and did enjoy our everyday. Although Nelly was overseas during our stay, her husband Patrick came to greet us and we had a very nice chat altogether. His travel experience through Russia to China and adventure in Africa is so fascinating that we already start planning to do in the future! Nelly had always responding to our messages promptly from the very beginning till our departure. She gave us lots of tips of what-to-do with our four year old boy in the city and how to get to airport through morning traffic. She also organized a cleaner to do spring cleaning every week (including changing bedlinen etc.) Thanks again Nelly and Patrick.
The flat is like our home in London in the past three weeks. We had enjoyed every day in the flat and the city. On our departure day to Zurich, our little boy asked “are we coming back soon here, right?” we said, “YES!”
