ON YOUR DOORSTEP
When you are ready to venture out, you'll find yourself torn between Kensington and the Museums on one side and the delights of Knightsbridge on the other. With excellent links into other parts of London, from South Kensington or Knightsbridge tube stations, this charming London vacation rental offers a fantastic base for any London experience. A convenience store for general groceries and an ATM is situated only a minute's walk from the home. Take a stroll through Hyde Park and stop for a picnic under one of its magnificent oak trees, watch the roller-bladers slalom through some cones, or rent a rowing boat and test your speed on the magnificent Serpentine. With such a collection of museums within arm’s reach you are bound to go home smarter than you came! While away the hours learning about the times when dinosaurs ruled the Earth in the Natural history Museum or check out the latest on Art and Design as you wander through the Victoria and Albert. When you’re ready to eat you are in a food-tasters dream; whether you’re in the mood for French, Italian, Argentinian or maybe just traditional English Pub food you’ll find what you are looking for in Kensington within easy distance of Ennismore Gardens.
This is one of London's most exclusive neighbourhoods and this garden square is amongst its most desirable streets, making this Knightsbridge holiday apartment a hugely popular choice for visitors to London on holiday or those seeking corporate accommodation.

We could not be happier regarding our stay at your flat. It was clean, roomy and nicer than even the lovely pics showed. The building and location was great and loved being close to so many museums. Also, the laundry machine was extremely helpful since we came in from a week's stay in Manchester. Finally, the value was amazing as it was priced great and much nicer than any other option we saw. Thank you and looking forward to our next stay.

The flat was exactly as described and worked well for us, giving more space than a hotel room plus a full kitchen. There were 4 of us; 1 adult, two 16 year olds and a 14 year old. I slept on the single bed. The kids had no issues with the loft and the 14 year old was on the slide out. The space was clean and very bright. Admittedly, it’s likely a better fall/winter accommodation as it was quite hot overnight and being on the lower level we didn’t leave the window open through the night. There was a fan for the sleeping loft and having one for the lower level would be helpful. Great location with the museums and Hyde Park a short walk away.

My stay here was pleasant. The location is in Knightsbridge which was about a 5 to 7 minute walk to Harrods and the underground. There are several coffee shops including Starbucks walking distance. The apartment is charming and felt safe. The host was easy to contact and got back to me immediately. We stayed end of July, there is no air conditioning but 2 fans. The only time it would get warm is after the 3 of us took showers, the steam kind of lingered in the apartment with it being underground, but other than that was comfortable. Thank you for having us.

Lovely small flat in a fantastic neighborhood! 2-3 blocks from Hyde Park, a 10 minute walk to So. Kensington Tube station, museums, neighborhood with lots of restaurants. Nicely appointed small kitchen (although we didn’t use it at all). The flat itself was very clean ~ could maybe just use a little refresh ~ but the location truly made this a great spot for my daughter and I to enjoy the week in London. The loft double bed does have a steep ladder to get into; but that was fine for my 21 year old ☺️ Overall a really lovely stay!

While planning my Christmas visit to London, I originally picked this unit because it is close to where my daughter lives. But, it turned out to be so much more. Very cute, very well appointed (plenty of towels, blankets, pans, utensils, chairs) and a great location (so close to Harrod's and yet in a quintessential London neighborhood.) Cozy but in a good way - I was able to host our gift exchange with appetizers for five without any problems. Two notes of caution - first, I might have missed that "garden" level means below street level. It was a bit disconcerting until I actually got inside the apartment as the big window provided plenty of light and it did not feel "underground" at all. Secondly, the ladder to the loft/bed area is quite steep - it wasn't a problem as my son was able to scamper it quite well and I slept on the first floor bed (which was very comfortable I might add). The host/management was exceptionally responsive and, in particular, very helpful in coordinating with my daughter to go back into the unit after we departed upon the discovery that my son left a purchase behind. Overall, a great place which I will happily rent again.

My stay at Ennismore Gardens was a 5. The apartment is lovely, and I especially enjoyed the fireplace in the evening. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking breakfast and some pre-prepped dinners from Waitrose! The location is excellent. Some major museums- ( the V&A, Natural History and the Science), Hyde Park, tube lines and nightlife are all within a 10-minute walk of this lovely apartment. It was perfect for me as a solo traveler.

We loved this flat and its location! Location. Location. Location. Walking distance to two tube lines .Clean Ease of communication with staff Close to Hyde Park and Kensington Washer/dryer combo in unit. Would we stay here again? Absolutely! Would I stay here with more than two people? Probably not, but that’s just because it is a bit small. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here.

My husband and I just recently stayed a week at Ennismore Gardens hosted by Ivy Lettings. The apartment is perfect for two people and has every amenity needed. It is located in a beautiful neighborhood and is close to Hyde Park. The apartment itself is beautifully decorated and includes everything needed to enjoy your stay. Working with Ivy is also a pleasure as they return any emails within 10 to 15 minutes and are so helpful and professional. I have stayed 5 times with this company at many of their apartments (Ennismore Gardens twice, due to its perfect location to Hyde Park) and I refuse to rent from any other company.

We found a very comfortable, clean and perfectly equipped accommodation, everything is lovingly cared for by the IVY team. The small apartment is very centrally located in a very quiet, chic area with a beautiful park between the underground stations South Ken and Knightsbridge (->plus: the location can be reached directly from Heathrow airport with the Piccadilly Line). All shops for daily needs and far beyond are within walking distance, as are the excellent restaurants and pubs of South Kensington in the evening. In short, just right for a feel-good holiday in London.

I have used Ivy twice over the last few years when staying in London. Both properties were unique and well kept. I compared the properties with Airbb and Vrbo and thought they were superior. The communication with the Ivy team was clear and to the point. They made themselves available during my stay on both occasions. I recommend Ivy for whoever wants a great place in London.

We enjoyed a very pleasant 6 night stay in one of Ivy's Knightsbridge apartments late last month. Coming all the way from Australia, we wanted to book an apartment through a reliable and trustworthy agency. We felt assured from the time we booked through to our departure that we were in good hands! Everyone we dealt with at Ivy was professional, friendly and helpful. It was great being met by an Ivy team member at the apartment who took the time to show us around and explain how everything worked. It was also handy having the essentials there for us to use - toiletry items, washing detergent and dishwashing tablets etc. Finally, we appreciated the follow up communications seeking feedback - I think that speaks volumes! Thanks for a smooth, easy and lovely stay Ivy!

The apartment is ideally located in the heart of London, below floor level from the street level. But it remains very clear. The first exit from South Kensington is 5 minutes walk (except from 22h, this exit closes and therefore the nearest exit is 10-12 minutes walk from the apartment). The apartment is in keeping with the photos and is very clean. It is perfect for a couple or a couple with 1 child. There is a very small dining area but it is enough for breakfast. 2 steps from the park Kensington garden (picnic and bike), 2 steps from Harrod's and the French Quarter Knightsbridge. The Victoria Museum, Albert Museum, and Natural History Museum are 700 meters away. In short, we will come back. For sure ! Thank you Guy!

Our Vacation was amazing, the place was very close to the underground and lots of shopping areas and restaurants. The place was very clean and cozy, it was perfect for our family of 4. We had some issues with the lock but we called and they responded very quickly on a Sunday and were at the place in no time to fix the problem for us. We would definitely recommend and use Ivy Lettings again. Friendly, responsible and promptly services. Thank you

1. Enquiry and Booking Process Our experience was easy and smooth. Emma was great in communicating with us quickly and efficiently. 2. Check In Process Instructions were clear. 3. Property Generally We were very pleased with the property and its location. However, the mattress on which we slept was quite uncomfortable (the one at the mezzanine level). Since we rented the flat for six nights, that became a little bit of an issue for my poor back. I suggested that they replace it with something of better quality. They immediately replied and told me they would look into it.

I had the experience of renting a holiday apartment through Ivy Lettings. I was first impressed by their website - the pictures and descriptions of the various properties were spot on. I was impressed by the variety of different flats and locations that they had on offer. We chose a property close to Hyde Park/Kensington and the rental process was straightforward and all of my queries were addressed quickly. The flat that we rented was clean and, most importantly, exactly as it was represented on the website. We were met by an Ivy representative at arrival - they showed us around the apartment and answered our questions regarding appliances and local walking directions. Overall, an excellent experience. I will not hesitate to use Ivy Lettings for my next sojourn to London. Bill

Stayed here recently with my mother for six days and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The Ennismore Gardens flat is not only clean, quaint, and affordable, but is also located in an excellent area. It's within walking distance to plenty of great restaurants, cafes, museums, and shopping. The South Kensington Station was nearby, too. It was an excellent stay, made even better by the helpful team at Ivy Lettings. Would recommend to any and everyone.

Coming from Canada, we thoroughly enjoyed our one-week stay. We appreciated the bathroom and it's appointments. The kitchen was a surprise. We prepared two of our daily meals there and could then afford to splurge on higher grade restos than we would normally would have eaten at. The location is very good: within walking distance of the subway and Harrod's

My husband and I throughly enjoyed our one week stay in London and at our lovely, cosy apartment, Ennismore Gardens. We have travelled all over the world and rented many apartments along the way and we enjoyed Ennsimore Gardens as much as any...clean, comfortable but best of all, the location was INCREDIBLE! The entire process from booking, check-in to check-out was very easy. Alyce Gibson was a delight to work with. Just one minor suggestion would be to provide a TV channel guide. On our next visit to London (we have family in the Kensington area) we will definately work with Ivy Lettings again. Thank you and keep up the good work.Super cute flat!

The place is very comfortable, is small but it has all you need. I loved that the toilette was sepárate from the rest of the house. It was secure and even when it did not have Ac was fresh in summer. We were very close from the underground and supermarkets and restaurants (very easy to get around) and 2 blocks away from museums. We were four and even when its small we fitted perfectly.
