Beach Blanket Babylon

The Churchill Arms

The cosmopolitan district of notting Hill in the royal Borough of Kensington and

Chelsea is famous for many things notably the annual carnival and the film of the same name starring Julia roberts. It has in recent years grown to be a fashionable area for young people and has a vibrant nightlife with some of the best music bars in London. It quite uniquely possesses a bohemian spirit within a formal and affluent setting. Its close location to the famous Portobello road Market makes it a highly desirable place to visit for shopping as small shops and stalls selling jewellery, antiques, clothing, art and souvenirs of London line the area.

SouthKensington

South Kensington’s community is a mix of families and young professionals with a variety of

nationalities including Italians and Americans. The Lycee Francais Charles de Gaulle provides language and

cultural classes, which supports the largest French community outside of France. Many of London’s famed institutions fall under South Kensington’s Exhibition road, thus establishing

this neighbourhood as one of the most historic and visited in the entire city. The royal Albert Hall, natural History Museum, the V&A and the royal College of Art are just some of the points of interest, whilst famous literary names including Beatrix Potter, Virginia Woolf and Sir J.M Barrie once called this place home.

Bayswater

Frontline

The Mitre

Bayswater borders the north of Hyde Park over Kensington Gardens and is therefore a

picturesque district and a popular spot for those touring the city. Bayswater Tube Station is the gateway for many visitors to this borough. From here a multitude of cafés, bars and restaurants can be found. This is also the most densely populated area for hotels with many of the striking stucco terraces providing tourist accommodation. A diverse community gives the place a cosmopolitan edge whilst its proximity to the Marble Arch and St Sophia’s Cathedral provides a hint of its historic past. Victorian terraces line the area with immaculate garden squares and well-kept streets making it a highly desired place to own property.
