It's about a three-minute walk from the Design Museum, on Holland Park Road, just one a block back from High Street Kensington.

@@EnglandRover thank you

It really is an amazing interior, isn't it?

Thanks for your comment. I agree, the Borough of Kensington & Chelsea have done a great job restoring and maintaining the house.

Oh, I'll need to re-watch my video. What have I said about it? :) Regardless of how I've described it, I think most people would want to visit Leighton House after seeing a video or photos of its interior.

@@EnglandRover Oh I'm only joking don't worry! It's just when people describe a museum etc as "secret" or "hidden" I always wonder about the people whose job it is to make sure it isn't secret or hidden. But I am only kidding 😁

I called it a hidden secret because I used to walk past here every day when I lived in London and never knew what was inside.

I think it is constantly undergoing some sort of renovation. The Saloon underwent a major restoration between 2016 and 2018, and it would have looked much different prior to this renovation.

They have twin and double rooms but I wanted to stay in the smallest hotel room that I could find in London so I booked the single.

Thanks for the sub!

Glad you enjoyed it!

I'd be happy living anywhere in Kensington but living in this house would be amazing.

Thanks.

Thank you for your kind words.

@@EnglandRover I agree with the comments from Apoplexy1000. Thank you very much for your work.

Thanks. :)

It looks amazing, doesn't it? The Yellow Drawing Room in Buckingham Palace is decorated in a similar style.

Thanks for the sub!

Well Sainsbury's have put their price up to 32p.

@@EnglandRover oooooo here in Oz Coles sells them for AU0.95c a pack well on the effluent side of the market LOL

Custard Creams and Bourbon/Chocolate Creams always seem to be the best value. Only the wafer biscuits are cheaper but we have to draw the line somewhere.

There is no charge to actually ride the pods so you can hop on the pod at Terminal 5 and ride it to the car park but without the code to get past the gate and into the hotel, you'll just be stuck in the car park and have to ride back to the terminal. If you're staying at the Thistle hotel, you'll need to contact the hotel and they will give you a code to get through the gate when you arrive at Station B and add the cost to your bill. If you're not staying at the hotel (or parking in the pod car park) but just want to ride the pods, then that is totally free.

It's an amazing interior, isn't it. Thank you.

You are so welcome!

Thanks. I'm 178cm (5' 10") and I it was fine for me. I'm sure it will be OK for someone a couple of inches taller than me.
