Aubrey Walk

On Campden Hill between Holland Park and Kensington, Aubrey Walk is quiet, elevated and slightly hidden. Low houses, walled gardens and one of the best local pubs anchor a street that behaves more like a village lane than a London road. Buyers here tend to have looked at both W8 and W11 and chosen the hill in between.
