About the area

Notting Hill, known for its pastel houses and Portobello Market, is one of London's most colourful neighbourhoods. Famous as a film location, it draws creators from around the world for fashion Reels and lifestyle shoots. Most of the colourful houses are private homes, so don't linger on doorsteps or make noise. The soft early-morning light is especially good.

Area character

  • Pastel houses in pink, blue, yellow and more
  • Portobello Road's market and antique shops
  • A bookshop and lanes linked to the film
  • Residential streets, so consideration for residents is essential
