Kensington and Notting Hill are two of London’s most elegant neighbourhoods. One is best known for being home to Kensington Palace and Gardens, the other for being home to Portobello Road market and the eponymous film; both are host to an abundance of hidden streets, pretty houses, and famous and literary residents. This walk visits both, giving you a perfect taste of what colourful west London is all about. And a couple of film locations.
