About the host
Your host
Hey, I'm Lex and the place you will be staying has been home to my family for the past 3 years.
I spent my 20's dabbling in the music industry in London and nearly all of my 30's travelling in Africa and Asia with a 5 year stint in India, where I trained as a Yoga Teacher.
I hope you enjoy our house as much as we do.
It's a great location to explore London from.
Lex and Family
Why they chose this property
There are many local grocers and a Lidl in the immediate vicinity. Our local convenience store is 2 mins walk (a few doors up from the station) with great pizza place next door to it. Wormwood Scrubs is 165 acres of public land that includes children’s playgrounds, a meadow, woodland, playing fields, a running track and outdoor gyms. It’s 2 mins walk from the cottage. A walk across the scrubs will bring you to North Kensington and the nearest pub, The Pavilion and a wonderful Thai restaurant called Fitou’s. It’s possible to walk to the bars and restaurants of Portobello Road but it’s easier to jump on the central line for 10mins. Even closer (one stop to White City) is Westfield Shopping Centre and the newly converted BBC Television Centre for days or nights out. Or take full advantage of the 24hr Central Line and be in the centre of town in 20mins.
