Offering verdant views across a garden square, this elegant three-bedroom apartment is mere minutes from Warwick Avenue Underground station. You’ll feel instantly at peace both in this effortlessly relaxing home and the laidback neighbourhood that welcomes you. Allow yourself to enjoy an overriding sense of calm as you wander the tree-lined streets of Maida Vale and explore the idyllic waterfront oasis of Little Venice...
Boasting an abundance of natural light from a balcony that overlooks a picturesque 19th century garden square, the open-plan living room and dining area is a graceful and generous space for socialising and relaxation. Subtly separated from the main living space by a convivial passe-plat, soft neutral hues and elegant accent lighting imbue the modern kitchen with warmth and cheer, a mood only enhanced by stirring views across the gardens from the window.
Gentle pastel hues expertly complement the lacquered wood wall in the contemporary master suite, replete with a smart en-suite bathroom that hosts a double walk-in shower. Soothing off-white tones usher in an instant sense of tranquility in the second bedroom, equipped with a king-sized bed and striking reclaimed drawers. Effortlessly reposeful with its congenial home office area and discerning wall art, the reading room offers a double sofa bed, and bookshelf. Bright and harmonious in its tasteful shades of taupe, the spacious family bathroom offers a bath and built-in shower. However, it’s that serene balcony that will truly enliven your stay here; a little haven of calm with a seating area that boasts unobstructed views across the communal gardens below.
We Love The refined scenes across a genteel garden square that awaits you on the balcony. Built in the 1860s, Formosa Garden is a tranquil oasis moments from Little Venice.

The unit in Maida Vale, close to the Tube, making getting around really convenient. Bathrooms very nice. Furniture bit dated. Pull out couch not a good sleeping bed. Quiet and close to cute cafe. Enjoyed our stay.

Hi Dan, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We are delighted you liked the property and the location! We hope to welcome you again soon! Best wishes, The Veeve team
This flat was perfect for our group of five. Location is great, just a 3 min walk to Warwick tube stop gets you pretty much anywhere in London with relative ease. Neighborhood is really nice with great restaurants (we recommend Red Pepper) and pubs within a short walk. Balcony overlooking private park was a little tight, but nice to have outdoor space. Overall a great flat and excellent location.

Thank you for staying with us and we look forward to accommodating you again soon.
Our family of 6 (2 parents and 4 teens) enjoyed this apartment. The location is great--very close to two subway stations and with some cute shops and restaurants literally around the corner. We had to use the sofa bed to accommodate us all, but it worked out fine. I'm sure the patio overlooking the park is a great place to sit and eat in the summer, but it was a little too cold and rainy for us on this winter trip. We would stay here again.

We love London and Paddington and this flat in particular turned out to be the perfect temporary home for us. As advertised, it was clean, the Veeve staff are all very responsive, and the flat has all the accoutrements you could want for a longer stay like ours. We can’t say enough for the living space or for the neighborhood. Easy access to the underground, too. Warwick station is a short walk away.

Hi Frank, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay and found the team so helpful. We hope to welcome you again soon! Best wishes, The Veeve team
We thought everything about this property was outstanding. It is a couple of steps from a small shopping area and five minutes walk up the Clifton Road to Boots, Sainsbury Express, etc. Three minutes walk to Warwick Tube (Bakerloo Line). Neighborhood is quiet. Nice restaurants in area both on high streets and by taking right out of building and walking to roundabout. Property itself is superbly appointed. We would stay again and look forward to returning.

Beautiful, clean, comfortable and spacious property for a family of 5 with lots of natural light. Photos really convey the property well. Excellent location, very nice neighborhood and close to the Warwick Ave. tube station. It worked well for a family with three kids, ages 13-18. For improvement: the communication with the management office was a little confusing and duplicative (multiple, similar emails and calls from different people), and it was disappointing not to know that we wouldn't have access to the beautiful outdoor space/private park.

Nice apartment but needs to change the cleaning team
We stayed in this apartment before and it was impeccable. Comfortable, large with a terrace giving on a wonderful garden, well equipped and managed by a very efficient team. But this time, the cleanliness of the apartment was far to be what it used to be. A lot of dust, floors were dirty and there was a funny smell. Otherwise our stay would have been perfect!

Hi Brigitte, Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay overall. We are so sorry that the property was not to the same cleaning level as before. We will do a thorough review of what went wrong this time. Best wishes, The Veeve team
We spent a week in this flat with our 2 sons and their girlfriends. The location is beautiful and just steps from the tube which made it so easy to explore the city. The flat is lovely and the kitchen has everything (including a nesspresso and several coffee presses - very important for coffee lovers!). The canals of little Venice are just a couple blocks away and a lovely stroll along the canals to Paddington station. There is a small grocery a few blocks away and a couple of little stores right on the block. The Prince Alfred pub is right outside the door and a great place for a pint after a long day of exploring.The flat’s layout was nice for three couples and the outside patio is adorable, looking over a lovely park. I would highly recommend this rental and will try to get it again for myself if we come back to London.
Appartamento moderno, molto ben arredato e situato in una zona residenziale tranquilla, centrale e ben collegata.
Un soggiorno complessivamente al di sopra delle nostre aspettative. Grazie

Super appartement dans quartier calme mais proche de la station de métro, parfaitement équipé, fonctionnel et avec beaucoup de charme. Epiceries et restaurants dans une rue juste à coté! Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable..
Einigermaßen ruhig. Pubs und Frühstücksgelegenheiten in der Nähe. Gute Verkehrsanbindung. Technik in der Wohnung ein wenige gewöhnungsbedürftig. Kleiner Balkon. Gut geeignet für bis zu 3 Personen.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this beautiful property! The location is perfect! It’s in a quiet, safe neighborhood and only a few min walk to the nearest tube station and a short ride to Central London all the sights. The only downside is that the key pick up and drop off is not done using a lockbox but a local business that’s about a 10 min walk from the property. Would still definitely stay here again!
The flat was super clean. The tube station was just a block away and provided quick access to central London. The neighborhood was quiet and very safe. Just around the corner were a couple of shops (bodega, mini hardware store) and a couple of restaurants and a quaint cafe that we had breakfast in every morning. A+
Nice, quiet, comfortable place, close to the Tube.
We enjoyed it here. The neighborhood was pleasant, and only a short walk to the Tube and grocery store. We even walked to Abbey Road Studios, which was about 5 blocks! It was upstairs, but there is a lift. Bathrooms were very nice, and this flat had everything we needed. I would stay there again!

Extraordinary!
We got lost just a few blocks from the property when we first arrived, and I called the service desk. They were able to get us going in the right direction. We were met by Csaba, who showed us the property and gave us some useful information. The property was very nice, clean, and gave us a sense of home. The neighborhood in Little Venice was nice and quiet, and pleasant to walk through. We enjoyed it very much. I met Taran, a maintenance manager for Veeve, on the sidewalk one day, and he was very friendly and pleasant to talk to. I would definitely stay at this property again, and definitely use Veeve.

Great flat!
We loved our week in London in this flat. It is spacious and well stocked. The balcony is very nice. The neighborhood is very residential, and has great pubs and stores nearby. There is a tube station a couple of blocks away.

About the host
Hosted by Veeve
A home away from home. We believe it can be something really special. We know that finding the perfect base from which to go out and explore - or stay in and recharge - can make a great vacation unforgettable. At Veeve, we've been committed to hand-selecting the very best homes in London and Paris since 2011. Our mission? To provide our guests with the ideal space to suit their needs; be it a family home in Kensington, a chic penthouse in Shoreditch, or a quirky loft in the Marais... Our homes may vary in size, style and location, but the experience we offer - seamless and curated - always stays the same. Whichever home you choose, our team of experts are bursting with insider knowledge on the local area. We love to make recommendations, so why not give us a call?
Why they chose this property
A quiet and beautiful residential area of London, the stretch of canal known as Little Venice can be found within this neighbourhood, a gloriously picturesque walk where visitors can see the unique canal-boat homes of Little Venice’s residents. Look closely and you might find the Puppet Theatre barge, a fifty-seat marionette theatre that moors itself in Maida Vale throughout the autumn and winter (you’ll find it in Richmond during the summer). If you’re a fan of the BBC, the famous Maida Vale studios can be found in this otherwise sleepy neighbourhood – and it’s not at all unusual to see a rockstar or two taking a quick break out the front.
