Shuna and Mike’s cottage is Notting Hill is the experience that Airbnb wanted to create in its early days, namely giving visitors to a new locale an opportunity to connect with locals and experience life through their lens. From my reception upon arrival to check out, Mike and Shuna provided such warm and lovely hospitality and exposure to homely English culture that I would never have been able to access if I were staying at a hotel in central London. The home is walking distance to Kensington Garden, Portobello Market, Billionaire’s Row, etc which are popular tourists destinations. It is also easily connected through a 5 minute walk to 3 major Tube lines that easily get you to any other popular London locales. But honestly the best part was just having the opportunity to chat with Mike and Shuna, over a cup of tea by the fire, after a day of exploring London. They’re such amazing people and have great stories and kind hearts. Highly recommend this Airbnb for anyone looking for a great stay in London.
