The typical London hotel charges $400 a night - just for a place to sleep - that's money you could be spending on seeing London or shopping in the world's most fashionable shops.

If you stay in a genuine London flat during your vacation, you'd save hundreds of dollars a day, gain a place where you can cook and feed the family inexpensively, and still have a fantastic place to sleep!

All About Notting Hill

Farnum-Christ-London-vacation-apartments-Notting-Hill

Diverse  -  Intimate  -  Effervescent

Notting Hill, a neighborhood of alternative culture since its developpment in 1820, is still bohemian.  But nowadys it is a cosmopolitan mix of cultures, a fashionable locale in west London, home to artists, musicians, lawyers, and politicians, including the young Tory leader David Cameron. The architectural blend of large Victorian terrace houses with smaller, more modest pastel homes lining closely-set, leafy avenues give the area its distinct village feel.
Portobello Road runs almost the entire length of Notting Hill from north to south. Portobello Road Market. known as an antigue market, today serves up three experiences - antiques and bric-a-brac to the south, fruit and vegetables in the middle, with second-hand clothing and bits'n'bobs to the north
