The Knowledge

West Kensington

West Kensington is a great place. Don't be put off by the seeming lack of night life and trendy bars as it's predominently residential but easily accesible to Fulham, Hammersmith and Chelsea. With a quiet community atmosphere, the area is home to many hidden gems in the form of shops, cafes and bars!

Bordered by Fulham and the A4 the North End Road runs through the middle. The properties are mainly converted flats, the best known being Queens Club Gardens, next door to the famous tennis club.
