The Neighbourhood

Holland Street is a quiet residential road lined with historic Georgian townhouses laid out in the first half of the eighteenth century. According to one local story, the street was home to several ladies-in-waiting when the royal family was in residence at Kensington Palace. Later it was occupied by the novelist Radclyffe Hall and the artist Walter Crane.

Today, Holland Street is conveniently located midway between Holland Park and Kensington Gardens. From here, the many restaurants and shops of Kensington High Street and Notting Hill are close, along with both underground stations.
