Welcome to Ladbroke Grove

Ladbroke Grove’s reputation as a bohemian hangout for fashionistas, media types and songwriters remains: Did you know that Jimi Hendrix wrote Purple Haze at 167 Westbourne Grove, and the house was then painted purple? Furthermore, the neighbourhood attracts plenty of people moving out from apartments around Kensington and Holland Park looking for a bit more house for their money. There are frequently seen a lot of people in the arts and media living here, but in the past few years it has becoming increasingly popular with people from the City too.
