My wife and I spent a week in Benjamin's flat for our 10th anniversary and it was absolutely perfect.

The location is just steps off the high street in Linden Gardens in Notting Hill but those steps make all the difference. You turn the corner off the high street and the neighborhood is another world which is beautiful and so quiet that we slept with the windows open the entire week.It is a 5 minute walk to the shops on Portobello Road or walk to the Notting Hill Tube stop to go out and explore London. There are also lot of shops within 1 block of the flat where you can get carry out dinner from a pub, a bodega for snacks and drinks and a Mailbox Etc. to ship all your purchases home.

The flat is modern, spacious and instantly feels like home. I am a huge foodie and kitchen had everything I wanted to cook a really nice meal. The living room has a huge couch and flat screen TV with basic cable and a Roku box so between the two you always have something to watch. The washer and dryer let us pack less and just wash clothes while we were there which let us bring more goodies back home. The bathroom is big with a shower, tub and an on-demand hot water system that lets you take a nice long shower every morning. Finally the bedroom has tons of storage and a really comfortable bed that is as good or better than any hotel.

But the best part of the entire experience was Ben who answered all of our questions immediately, met us when we arrived and was the perfect host. So if you are heading to London do yourself a favor and stay at this flat. You will love it as much as we did but don't love it too much because we need it to be available for all our future trips to London.
