Holland Road Townhouse
+ Bed and Breakfast
6BR, 3BA, Sleeps 9-10

Property Description

This vast townhouse is to be found on the western edge of Kensington, close to High Street Kensington and the exhibition halls of Olympia. Although it is located on the undeniably busy Holland Road (with its mixed bag of small hotels and B & B's), this has not prevented the owner from creating a family home of great warmth and comfort. First and foremost, the house has been double-glazed, leaving much of the city's noise and grime out on the street where it belongs. Inside, the house has the space and charm of an old country rectory, but is decorated in the eclectic urban style of a world traveller. Perhaps best of all, the house opens onto a small private garden to the lovely lawned communal gardens filled with roses and mature trees.
