The Dark Horse

The Dark Horse: Greater London

Set in a quiet corner of Notting Hill, this stylish home is great for families, friends, and professionals alike. It's spread over four floors so you'll be climbing plenty of stairs here, but the views from the rooftop terrace make it all worth it. You'll find Portobello Road with its famous street market and charming restaurants an easy walk away, along with that one bookshop that film buffs will want to visit. Holland Park and Notting Hill Gate stations are easily reached on foot too, putting some of London's most iconic landmarks like Buckingham Palace and Big Ben right at your fingertips. Whether you're seeing the sights or enjoying a more chilled-out city stay, this home delivers.

Home truths:
*Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. The Holland Park Underground Station is a short walk away and is served by the Central Line.

*This home is spread over four floors – the kitchen and living room are on the second floor, so you'll need to climb stairs here. The stairs have a lot of gaps, so for this reason, your host is unable to accommodate children under 7 years old.

*This home was purpose-built for rentals, so it's not the most soulful space.
