About this property

This studio flat would suit a single or couple. It has its own independent entrance (which no one else uses) from the street to the studio, but is part of a large private house which is a historic grade two listed building. It is an excellent bolt hold for anyone coming to visit London as it is central and close to transport, shops and restaurants and a two minute walk to Kensington Gardens.

We are reopening for visitors from 12 April 2021, and the flat has had some renovations made to it to give our guests a safe and clean environment. This flat is easy to access as it has its own entrance that only the guest would use. Always after each guest has left we thoroughly clean the flat as well as steam cleaning the floors, washing and steam ironing sheets. The flat is always spotless and clean and we will endeavour to do so especially during these times in order to give our guests confidence when booking. This flat would also suit anyone needing to self isolate on arrival in the UK as you are totally self contained with your own front door entrance to the flat.

It is quiet and brilliantly located for the park, shopping and sightseeing, with lots of supermarkets and convenience stores. The flat is maintained to a very high standard and has been newly refurbished and decorated. It has a large double bed (king size) with new mattress anti allergy pillows. New 100% cotton sheets. There is a clothes washer and dryer. Separate kitchen (separate room) with microwave, cooker, coffee maker (nespresso) etc. The Studio room has lots of cupboard space, a TV, WIFI and a small sofa. There is a small shower off the bedroom and between the bedroom and kitchen there is a small table for eating. This is a really sweet studio and it isn't that small. It is warm with underfloor heating. There are all mod cons and up to date guide books for your use.

I am sure you will be very happy at the flat. Its really comfortable and safe and we are always here to provide any help or assistance you might need.

Lovely location and smooth check in/out

Nice little bolthole for London. 15 minute walk from Paddington station. We found it just a little too small for comfort for a return visit, but otherwise all good.

Great Getaway- Amazing Flat

We stayed in this lovely flat for a four day trip to London. The location was perfect and within walking distance to the tube, grocery stores, restaurants, Hyde park, etc. The flat was very clean, nicely decorated, and stocked with everything we needed and more. Ann was very responsive and helpful. We would definitely return.

Perfect place to stay

It was a perfect amount of room and an easy location near Paddington so not needing to lug luggage multiple tube stops for the airport. Ann and as so pleasant and accommodating ensuring we had a little something for breakfast and some wine for the evening. Such a nice extra touch.

Great location with an awesome host!

Don’t miss out on this convenient and cute property. We loved the neighborhood. It’s very walkable with lots of food a couple blocks away and multiple tube stops close by. The property itself is well appointed with everything you could need. The host is a doll and we enjoyed our conversations with her. We would definitely stay here again!

London October 2023

Fabulous, Ann and Ivo were great to talk to with good recomendations in the local area for food and Pubs. Many grocery stores in less than a five minute walk. The flat was clean with a well stocked kitchen with starter groceries. We will be booking this flat on our next London Trip when we can stay longer. A great base of operations. We highly recommend this listing.

Clean, fresh flat in a convenient location

My husband and I just returned from 6 days in London. We really enjoyed operating out of this flat. It was very functional, with a comfortable bed, a great shower and a very nice little kitchen, with everything needed. I really enjoyed my pre-trip communication with the owner and appreciated her kindness when our flight was delayed 12 hours. There are maps of the area and of the tubes on the wall and a laminated sheet of suggested pubs and other tips. We found this location to be great for catching buses, tubes, etc. My husband and I are very self-sufficient and found this flat worked perfectly for us. My only interaction with the owners was about 2 minutes of paying the rent. If you tend to need a lot of assistance, this flat may not be for you, as the owners are a very busy family. I would be happy to stay here if I ever return to London.

First time staying in London

Ann stayed in touch and provided helpful information prior to our arrival. The flat was easy to find and Ann provided milk, bread, tea and coffee. This was much appreciated. Some suggestions to make guests more comfortable. Number one issue is the bathroom. The sink is tiny. Water goes everywhere when washing your hands, face and brushing your teeth. It is not a functional sink. Nowhere to put toiletries and nowhere to hang a second towel. Lack of lighting to read by. Lamps on either side of the bed that provide good lighting would be wonderful. “O” ring in kitchen faucet needs replacing. Overall and with these improvements it can be a first class place to stay.

An absolute gem

This is a wonderfully central flat and we spent three happy nights there. It is perfectly located, near to all central attractions and just a stroll away from the parks .The flat was beautifully decorated and was much bigger than we expected. We were warmly welcomed by Ann and she very kindly bought bread and milk for our arrival. This was one of the many thoughtful and personal touches that we found throughout our stay. There was a lovely selection of toiletries in the spotlessly clean bathroom and the flat was very well equipped with all that we needed including , an ironing board, a hairdryer, brollies and lots of useful information and maps. As we had lived in London we didn't need any advice but felt that Ann was not only friendly but very approachable and would be ready to help and answer any queries or requests. Wifi was quick and easy to use,the bed was comfy and for central London it was a surprisingly quiet neighbourhood. When you consider how much a very average, and often not so nice, Hotel would cost in the area, the apartment represented excellent value and it was so much nicer than an anonymous Hotel room. Our only regret is that we didn't stay longer.

Fantastic Flat

Five Star rating across the board! We were very pleased with the accommodation and our visit to London. The flat is exactly as described and perfect for what we were looking for. It’s quaint, tiny shower and washroom, but there’s enough room to maneuver around everywhere else. The bed was comfy and at the end of a long day of sightseeing, perfect. Awesome location, steps away from Kensington Palace, Hyde Park, Notting Hill. An easy walk from the Bayswater Circle line. Special thanks to Ann for the ‘extra’s’ - Milk, butter and bread in the refrigerator. Nice bottle of wine! Would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely perfect flat in prime location

The Bayswater studio met our needs in every way - clean, cozy, well appointed, and superbly located. Queensway and Bayswater tube stops and Paddington rail station are all an easy walk away. Plenty of pubs, restaurants, and grocery stores nearby. The neighborhood itself is quiet and safe. We have found our new choice for lodging when in London. Thanks, Ann, for a great stay!

Very comfortable and convenient location!

We really enjoyed our stay here! The property was very comfortable, and they provided everything we needed for our stay. You really can’t beat the location. You are about a 10 minutes walk away from 4 different underground stations. Very convenient! We also felt very safe in this location as well. The owners were not in town while we were there, but Ann was great about communicating before and during our stay. All of her instructions were very clear and easy to follow. Thank you much!

Perfect London stay!

Very well located, easy access to Paddington Station and tubes, Waitrose market close by. Ann is a wonderful host and very responsive to communications! The flat has everything you need for a nice London visit - kitchen is fully stocked to use with coffee/tea/spices/condiments provided; bed is great (if you like soft, which we do); sheets/towels were changed out after a week by the cleaning lady; good bathroom with sizeable shower; lots of storage space; very helpful maps of London and the tube system on the wall to peruse as you eat breakfast...The stairway down to the flat is spiral and narrow, but with a good handrail. Street noise at night is not that bad - we slept with the window open. We felt very safe, secure, and had no issues during our stay. We certainly will be back.

Our London base

This flat worked extremely well for us. Ann and Ivo were very available if we needed anything. We stayed 5 days and toured London and nearby. Lots of options for the tube and train connections. Loved having the washer/dryer as this fell in yhe middle of a 3 week trip This is a basement flat which was fine for us, but might be a challenge for someone with mobility issues.

A Perfectly Horrid Flat

I suppose that's the way I should describe this place if I ever want it to have any future availability. When people find out what a wonderful flat it truly is, none of us will be able to book a stay there! But the truth is, it's actually a wonderful little hidden gem, as anyone who's stayed there knows. The hosts are lovely, kind people who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The flat is perfectly cozy for two, and the neighborhood has loads of lovely shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes. And it's just moments away from Kensington Gardens/Hyde Park and TWO Tube stations! What more is there to say? Book at stay here. I promise you won't regret it.

Perfect London flat!

We spent 5 days in Ann's flat and all I can say is that it ticked all the boxes on our list of wants and needs. The flat was perfectly located to transportation, grocery stores, and pubs. The quiet neighborhood was close to Kensington Park and Hyde Park. Kitchen was well equipped and included a washer/dryer, a rare find. I messaged Ann for 1 kitchen item and it was quickly delivered. As far as the bathroom sink, of course, it is small! No big deal! We used Uber twice and cars arrived in 2 minutes. I'm not sure you could find a finer flat at such a reasonable price in all of London or any other European city. Book it!

Great location

Terrific location.... so close to Hyde Park yet so peaceful and quiet. Really comfy bed, peaceful and secure for a good nights sleep. While the flat is small we had everything we needed to prepare our own meals (Waitrose supermarket is a short walk away) or really handy access to places to eat out if we wanted to.

About the host

Hosted by Ann

This home is owned by an English family who live in the building but have a separate entrance. We have two grown up children. We have restored the building to a high standard and are one of the few remaining original houses in the area.

Why they chose this property

This is a really beautiful house of grand proportions and lovingly restored. It is in a grade two listed building. It is the last remaining house in the street which hasn't been converted into flats or hotels. The area is just wonderful and we really love living here. It is both quiet and vibrant and centrally located plus perfect for the park. Due to new restrictions in London for limited amounts of days allowed to rent per year please contact us anyway, If dates are not showing available.

What makes this property unique

It is quiet and self contained and excellently located for transport, park and sightseeing. Close to supermarkets and restaurants. The flat is spotlessly clean and new with modern amenities, such as clothes washer, cooker and underfloor heating. We do take great pride in accommodating our guests and try and give a great experience towards your stay in London.
