ALL of the major 'tourist attractions' of London are within easy reach within 30 minutes by tube. Tube trains are every 2 minutes at peak hours. Really, it's a great base for exploring all of London.
Closer to home, the enormous (and fabulous!) Westfield shopping mall is a short walk from the flat, and has hundreds of clothes shops (high street and luxury), restaurants, cafés, banks, cinema, high-end supermarkets (Waitrose and Marks and Spencer), salons and gyms etc. all under a massive roof and protected from the weather outside! It's the largest shopping mall in Europe, and has just become even bigger in spring 2018.
Westway sports centre is a short walk away which has a fantastic gym, and tennis courts. The gay tennis group meets on Friday evenings - bring your racquet!
The famous Portobello Road, Notting Hill, BBC Television Centre, White City Place and Shepherd's Bush are all close by - great for brunch, browsing and buying!
Apart from the Westfield mall, there are plenty of places to eat and drink ranging from cafés to restaurants of all worldwide cuisines - all within walking distance from the apartment. Love film? Choose between the multi-screen at the shopping centre for blockbusters or a choice of a couple of different independent cinemas for arthouse picks.
Soho, and the famous gay area of Old Compton Street is reached within 20 minutes by tube and a short walk. We are lucky because the Central Line (one of our local tube lines) runs all night at the weekends. Vauxhall is easy to reach too.
Heathrow airport is on our side of London... easily accessed via Paddington Station (Heathrow Express), Piccadilly Line (via Hammersmith) or a short, cheap taxi ride using our local mini cab service.
We have a huge local park - great for jogging, picnics and exercising in the fresh air. There's even some outdoor cruising :)
