Overview of W11 4HN, Hesketh Place, Notting Hill
W11 4HN, which is in the town of London, in the borough of Kensington and Chelsea, Greater London is one of the average rated places to live in this area. W11 4HN is rated 4.07 from 46 reviews. 13 reviewers, out of 46 total, rated W11 4HN 5 stars. Comments written by these locals include ‘The area is upmarket and quite established and posh’. However, not all reviewers were as positive, with one saying ‘in need of regeneration! is it so close to beautiful neighbourhoods and it feels like missing out’.The atmosphere is not great in all honesty, it’s almost like the area lacks a sense of community to make it really feel like home.
The atmosphere is not great in all honesty, it’s almost like the area lacks a sense of community to make it really feel like home. That said, I don’t see any major issue raising children in the area, there are a range of schools and open areas.
Transport
The availability of transport in the area is standard, no better or worse than you would expect from London. As far as I am aware there are one or two train stations within walking-ish distance, perhaps cycling distance. Not an abundance of night buses but I don’t find myself in situations where I am required to ride a night bus though so I have no issue with it
Community
A good aspect is ability to park. I never have trouble parking the car after work which I reckon I take for granted because gosh at this point I don’t think I’d Ben able to handle parking the car a road away. A bad aspect is being near a busy road is we hear a lot of traffic and receive a good bit too. The houses are mostly owned I would assume with a range of homeowners from couples, families, singles
Amenities
A number of locations to buy food which is ideal for somebody as lazy as I am, don’t like to travel too far for anything really! The kids are always at the parks which seem to be quite popular in the summer months as everyone wants to be out catching the sun. I personally feel the area lacks activities as there aren’t many things one can do for recreation in the area besides going to the park.
The area is upmarket and quite established and posh
The area is upmarket and quite established and posh, you are more likely to bump into lawyers and bankers on the street rather than artists, students or cool funky folks. However it is not too far from Ladbroke Grove which luckily kept its more edgy character and original population which helps to freshen up the atmosphere.
Transport
With 2 tube stations at a walking distance (Holland Park and Notting Hill Gate) as well as many bus routes, the area is very well connected. It is also in walking distance from Paddington Station so national network is at hand as well.
Community
The area is quiet and clean. This also may be its down side: sometimes it feels too posh when you would like an atmosphere which is more urban and rough, but that's West London, not east.
Amenities
Area is close both to Holland Park and Notting Hill Gate so there are loads of shops and restaurants, both chains and independent. Portobello Road is just around the corner so pubs, bars and more restaurants are available there too. Westbourne Grove is a particular gem with high end shop and, Boutiques delies and more. The area is extremely green with abundance of open spaces, parks, squares and gardens, among them the beautiful Holland Park with its spectacular Japanese garden.
in need of regeneration! is it so close to beautiful neighbourhoods and it feels like missing out
in need of regeneration! is it so close to beautiful neighbourhoods and it feels like missing out. there is potential but definitely need work
Transport
I don't personally use public transport much to know but the commute system i believe is good enough for the area. the is luck of cycle lanes though making it not safe to cycle
Community
mostly owners i believe the particular road feels safe in the morning but not so much at night. there is anti social behaviour and not so much safety
Amenities
there are plently of shops and facilities in the area including westfield centre across the motorway. notting hill with local produce markets close by as well
I love the big shopping market

Parking and noise pollution are the number one most inconvenient things in the area.

it feels as though residents are overlooked in favour of the tourists because of the amount of money they bring into the area.
