Staying at Charlotte's place made us feel like we were in Notting Hill movie, with many of the movie locations in short walking distance. The private garden was amazing. Being surrounded by apartment buildings, the garden's mature landscape was serene and otherworldly, and it was hard to believe busy Portabello Road was a block away. Our 6-year old daughter aptly called it "secret garden." The flat was very well equipped with high-end appliances. We are very thankful that she and her family let us experience Notting Hill in its full beauty.
