Palace Gardens Terrace
About the home
Enjoy a romantic London getaway in one of the most beautiful London streets - quiet, tree-lined, white terraced Victorian London...all just a stone's throw from the great shopping of High Street Kensington or the more funky fashions and trends of Notting Hill and Portobello Road. If walks through the gardens are your thing Kensington Gardens (adjoining Hyde Park) are also just around the corner.
Equally - if you're in town for work - this flat provides a perfect home-away-from-home that's comfy enough to look after you - and spacious enough to entertain if that's your thing!
We look forward to welcoming you to our London home-away-from-home. Available for seven nights minimum.

The South East England / Greater London region


If you're in London for work, take time out to explore a bit of the city - if you're here for a holiday there's nowhere with more to offer - whatever you want, London has it...history overload...start with the Museum of London to get a comprehensive overview of what London was like before London was here (pre-history) - and everything that has happened since.
Go on to the Tower (1,000 years on, still a commanding presence above Traitor's Gate on the Thames), the Abbey, Monument (to the Great Fire of London), Guildhall, Royal Courts of Justice, Temple Church, the City (the Square Mile). Galleries and museums galore - many of them free - British Museum, National Gallery, Portrait Gallery...the Cabinet War Rooms where Churchill walked the corridors.
Walk the Thames Path - take a ferry trip to the Royal Observatory and Maritime Museum at Greenwich. Explore the ancient green belt forest of Epping or walk through Richmond Park (once a Royal Hunting Reserve). Ride a bike or take a canal boat along the Grand Union Canal.
Shopping - take your pick - up-market, funky, bargain basement, open air markets or colonnaded walks...Camden Markets, Knightsbridge, Oxford Street or Piccadilly...Night-life in the West End, Chelsea or just locally, hopping every night of the week. Maybe the theatre takes your fancy - musicals, drama, comedy, a film premier in Leicester Square...
Relax in the park - Regents Park, Kew Gardens, Hyde Park or Kensington Gardens and that is just London...expand you view to the South-East of England and you're going to need to stay quite a while - the Cinque Ports, Chartwell, Brighton Pier and the South Downs walks - visit enjoyengland.com to refine the details of your particular fantasy trip.
The Central London/Zone 1 / Notting Hill area
Notting Hill is an attraction in itself - Portobello Road markets and antiques and the incredible diversity of restaurants and night-life on your doorstep is amazing - all culminating in the Notting Hill Carnival every August, one of the biggest cultural festivals in Europe.
Kensington is a little more sedate but definitely worth wandering through - Holland Park Opera is another annual attraction and, of course, the South Kensington museums are in walking distance - Natural History, Victoria & Albert, Science Museum and National Geographic Society.
The Royal Albert Hall (BBC Proms and myriad other shows throughout the year) and the Albert Memorial are also very close by - as is Kensington Palace, former home of Princess Diana and open to the public.

I spent my last holiday in this romantic and confortable apartment with my family. The location is excellent, just in the middle between Notting Hill and Kengsinton. The street is very calm and the apartment has everything you need. I will recomend it. |
Guestbook for Palace Gardens Terrace
Hi Gen,
Just an email to let you know that we had a great time in London and your lovely apartment. It is everything we hoped for, and more. A perfect location, beautifull streets, perfectly decorated, light and spacious, everything is of such a high standard! My husband enjoyed running and walking in the parks, while me and our daughter went shopping. Together we had an afternoontea, went to "Sister Act", London Eye, Bus tour, etc. We are looking forward to staying in your apartment again at our next visit.
Thanks again,
kind regards,
Karin, Luc & Mette
Hi Basma,
We love staying at the apartments on Palace Gardens Terrace. The apartments are
a couple of streets back from 'Kensington Palace'. They are clean, new, safe and just
a wonderful area. They are all fully finished with beautiful modern utilities.
Transferring money across is really easy with Pay Pal and Gen can send you a receipt
of payment if you ask her. She is a very trustworthy person.
We are planning another stay for February next year. Now when we go to London,
we prefer to plan our trip around the availability of the apartments.
We have had to stay in Pimlico and Bayswater in the past because Gen's property was
fully booked and there is no comparison. Gen's property is just great and we love it.
Hope this helps, please let me know if I can help with anything else.
Kind regards
Maddi
hi Gen,
I am writing to you on behalf of both of us to say a massive thank you for a wonderful stay in you flat 3. It was the perfect location for our stay. The apartment was even better than we expected and a real pleasure to rent.
All the provided linen, space, furniture and crockery etc just added to the convenience and enjoyment of our holiday.
Thank you very much

Hi Gen,
We received the money deposit via Paypal. Thank you.
We wanted you to know how much we appreciated our stay at the flat and to thank you for it. The location was great, very cosy and quiet. It was the perfect space suited to our needs. London is quite a unique city. Two weeks were definitely not enough. We barely scratched the surface. We will certainly need to consider another trip to explore, meander through, stop and simply enjoy this very civilised place.
Hoping to reedit the experience soon.
In the mean time, we wish you well.
Best regards.
Michèle et Gilbert
