Staying at Presidential serviced apartments Kensington ? You're in for a treat this weekend. The event kicks off this Saturday from 9 am to 2 pm, just a five‑minute walk from South Kensington Tube, making it incredibly accessible for guests and locals alike. Local farmers are gearing up to showcase the season’s best produce. No shopping list needed — everything fresh and delicious will be right there waiting for you.

Meet the Vendors Behind Your Food

There is so much that takes place before you put fresh, green vegetables on the table. Think ploughing, planting, weeding and so much more. You can take the opportunity to learn about this directly from the farmers. At South Kensington Farmers’ Market, you meet the people who feed you. Dorset Fish brings in that morning’s catch so you know exactly how fresh your seafood is. Parsons Nose hands you free‑range pork sandwiches that reset your expectations. You can talk face‑to‑face with the farmers, ask about their animal‑care practices, and see real food accountability in action.


Other vendors are Ted’s Veg, Perry Court Farm, Akiki Organics, and Wild Country Organics—all offering 100% organic, chemical‑free produce. For a special meal, pick up grass‑fed lamb or beef from Beatbush Farm. And don’t forget to stop by Fosse Meadows for free‑range poultry that adds real flavor to any gathering.

Produce You’ll See at the Market

Shoppers are likely to find more summer treats, including sun-sweet strawberries still at their peak, crisp English peas ready for shelling, and tender baby new potatoes that barely need washing before roasting. Other expected produce includes leafy greens, lettuces and fresh herbs like mint and dill.


If you prefer versatile summer veggies, courgettes and tender spring onions will also be available. Arrive early to grab some lobster, fresh fish and crabs at The Well Dressed Crab. Some stalls specialise in mouth-watering honey, cheese, sweet jam, and plenty of vegetables and fruits — all perfect to enjoy during your stay at south Kensington apartments for rent where comfort meets convenience in the heart of the city.

Shopping with Sustainability 

Bulk shopping should not be an opportunity to pollute the environment we live in. In fact, take this as an opportunity to create awareness around pollution. Sure, there will be a lot to buy, but no matter how much you buy, sustainability should be a priority. The best advice? Carrying your bags and containers to prevent littering the environment with plastic bags. Many stalls here allow shoppers to buy in bulk or fill their own jars so they don’t overbuy; which is also a great strategy. If possible, choose organic or regenerative farms to back eco-friendly growing methods. Every little choice counts, and your shopping can show both good taste and care for the planet.

How to Make the Most of Your Market Visit

Want the best experience? The earlier you arrive the better. Produce like fresh meat and fish tend to sell out quickly, so set up your alarm if need be. Most stalls accept cards, but it is more convenient if you carry some cash as well. There’s an ATM just outside South Kensington tube if needed. Comfortable footwear is also a must-have due to cobblestone streets. If planning to buy some frozen or chilled stuff, bring along some insulated bags as well. 

Booked a Date Yet? 

South Kensington Farmers’ Market is exactly where you should be this weekend. Whether you're staying at Presidential Apartments Kensington or just passing through, you can shop for the week, find cooking inspiration, and soak in the relaxing atmosphere surrounded by fresh produce. So gear up and head out — let the sensory experience of the market uplift your weekend spirit.

Indian Temples You Should Visit When in London


Tourists like to go to London because the place offers an out-and-out opportunity to experience a fascinating range of cultures.

This is one of London’s greatest appeals. It offers an exciting combination of thrilling experiences you are not likely to find in other tourist destinations. Staying in Presidential Apartments Kensington makes it easy for you to visit the many interesting places in London.

You can find Buddhists, Sikhs, and Hindus worshiping their deities and gods in many intricately designed temples found in London. These temples are not just for show. These are places for prayer and worship.

London has a wide range of interesting Indian temples including the ISKCON -Soho London temple, the Temple Willesden, Wimbledon’s Sree Ganapathy temple, and the Shri Swaminarayan Mandir temple.

·         ISKCON-Soho Temple
ISKCON, or the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, established a base in the United Kingdom in the 1960’s. The first temple was put up in a warehouse located in Covent Garden. In 1979, the Hare Krishna movement found its home in the Radha Krishna Temple at Soho Square, the current active place of worship for the movement’s devotees.

·         Temple Willesden
Willesden’s Shree Swaminarayan Temple was established in 1975 to accommodate the growing number of Swaminarayan believers who migrated to the UK from East Africa. The temple has gone through many changes through the years. The temple today is a three-storey building made of red bricks. It combines interesting elements from both Hindu and British architectures. 

·         Sree Ganapathy Temple
Shree Ganapathy Temple is located in one of the residential streets along Wimbledon. It is far simpler than the other temples in London. However, it is known to be Europe’s earliest fully-consecrated Hindu temple.

·         Shri Swaminarayan Mandir Temple
Shri Swaminarayan Mandir is generally referred to as the Neasden Temple. It is probably the temple that both locals and tourists are most familiar with. Hindus actually go the temple for worship. In most days, however, the temple is open to tourists.

London allows you to have your fill of Indian Hindu temples. If you want to learn about the Buddhist culture, London also gives you the opportunity to do just that. You can visit the London Fo Guang Shan Temple, the London Buddhist Vihara, as well as the Buddhapadipa Temple for a fascinating peek into Buddhist culture.


Stay in one of the comfortable and conveniently-located aparthotels in Kensington and get the most from your visit to London.

For booklovers (or bibliophiles) waiting to explore the city, there are a lot of literary hotspots to visit and to make you live the experience. Of course, before touring a city as big as London, be sure to find the best place to stay. Preferably, one that has access to local tourist attractions, and staffs with expertise of the whereabouts of your targeted places to visit, who can also hook you up with premium tour packages to help maximize your stay.

“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”

Listen to one of the most renowned writers of all time. Live your life, start by reading, travel, and visit a monument dedicated to one of the most beloved authors, Oscar Wilde, in Adelaide Street in Trafalgar Square. You can even strike up a one-way conversation with him and stay unnoticed in this heavily trafficked spot! 

“It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.”

Ask for premium tours at the reception of the Presidential Apartments Kensington, they will help you book one and will provide the whereabouts of the place.

“Oh as I was young and easy in the mercy of his means”

If you are up for parties as did Dylan Thomas and George Orwell, visit the Fitzroy Tavern. Enjoy the party and artworks at the top of the pub, or visit their Writers and Artist Bar downstairs.

Covent Garden takes its name from its fruitful history - literally. It used to be marketplace for fruits and vegetables back in the 16th century while Soho had a more “bohemian and liberal” past due to its areas for music and theater. With all that combined you don’t only get a good accommodation but a blast from the past with the Covent Garden and Soho as well.

        Here are five (5) reasons why you should consider Serviced Apartments Covent Garden as one of your Serviced Apartments Central London options.

1.   There are a lot of shopping centers around the area.

Whether you’re looking for boutique stores or an avant garde shopping experience, you’ll see a lot of it near Soho and the Covent Garden. Along the streets of Soho you’ll find stores centering on beauty and fashion, as well as spa and massage services - which can be a good deal when you stay in the Covent Garden.

2.           It offers a great nightlife experience.

3.           It’s close to museums and galleries.

5.           You won’t go through a day feeling hungry with their variety of food and drinks.

The Smartest Decision to Make When Visiting London

London, England is one of Europe’s busiest and most famous cities today. It is one of the worlds most visited and historically rich tourist destinations. It is also known for being home to major blockbusters like the Harry Potter series, The King’s Speech and Notting Hill.
Just visiting a place like this wouldn’t even be close to scratching the surface of all the things that make it the incredible city it is. Something’s always happening in each corner you visit—and with a city this huge, you could do something different every day and still wish for more time. In fact, the growing list of things the city is and the things you can do in it is seemingly reaching a point of endlessness.  
Whether you’re in London or in a completely different place, you’re going to have to find a place you can temporarily call home. The number one priority most visitors have would be finding the right accommodations to suit both their budget and their needs. And because London is notoriously known for its lack of frugality, hotels are slowly losing their place in the industry to the rise of Holiday Apartments in London.
Nowadays, most travelers skip the appeal hotels have for the homey feel a holiday apartment or an aparthotel gives. Aparthotels London are not only a great way to save money when you’re traveling on a budget, but are also the best places stay in if you’re looking for a settled and comfortable space you could have all to yourself.
They give you the privacy hotels never seem to give—you won’t have to wake up early to turn doorknob signs or to avoid wasting free breakfasts. With holiday apartments and aparthotels, you can do as you please and still come home to your own comfortable and welcoming space.
They’re a frugal traveler’s best kept secret—one thing that makes accommodations like these great would be the fact that their rates decrease with time. The longer you stay, the more your rates decrease. With this in hand, you won’t have to worry about how many days your stay lasts—you can even stay longer if you wish.

Staying in Aparthotels in Kensington and holiday hotels is a smart decision whenever you’re seeking comfort at affordable prices. They offer a comfortable and settled vibe that’s suited for anyone that wants to stay a bit longer in the city of London.

Factors to Consider when Searching for the Best London Accommodation

London has amazing destinations for families, backpackers, foodies, shoppers, fashionistas, socialites, theater-goers, history buffs, pop culture fans, and many other types of travellers. This is why it remains a favorite among tourists from different generations and cultural backgrounds.
The influx of travellers means plenty of the city’s accommodations are occupied. It is a good thing for the service industry, but not so much for you and other travellers looking for good Aparthotels in Kensington.
The hunt is going to be tough. But, below are factors you have to consider to help you snatch the best London accommodation and ensure an enjoyable trip.
View
You can expect intricate exterior and interior designs from several hotels, inns and Presidential Apartments Kensington, London. How about the view outside? This is actually where some accommodations are better at than others.
You may be spending most of your time roaming around the city and not staying in your hotel room. But then again, isn’t it relaxing to see a nice view of a park, neighborhood, old building or any other tourist attraction every morning? You certainly will not enjoy your accommodation if all you see by the window is a wall, car park or any other unsightly structure.
Facilities and Services
Aside from sleeping, you might be planning to spend your time in the hotel by relaxing in a tub, getting in the shower, watching TV, browsing the web, washing your clothes, or enjoying a meal. However, you should know that accommodations differ in the number of facilities and services they offer. Before you book, check out if they have quality bedding, nice bathroom, TV, Wi-Fi, and laundry area. Get to know if they provide meals as well.
Accessibility
Make the most out of your London trip by visiting as many places as you can. The best accommodation can help you do so. It should be accessible to many tourist attractions so you can spend more time enjoying them instead of just sitting on the bus, taxi or train. If there are quite distant places you want to visit, make sure you choose a hotel or inn that is near a bus or train station.
Affordability
Lastly, consider the price you are willing to pay for accommodation. If you want affordable ones, you can opt for self-catering hotels or inns. You don’t have to book the most expensive accommodation to have fun in London. You just need to plan and prepare well for the trip.

Important Safety Precautions for Preparing Food In Holiday Apartments in London

Holiday apartments in London like the Presidential Serviced Apartments have provided travelers from all over the world a home away from home. Their greatest advantage over any five-star accommodation is that they can give their guests the freedom to put their culinary creativity to use.

However, getting to cook your own meals during your holiday doesn’t necessarily mean that you shouldn’t try London’s local delicacies. There are many pubs in London that serve mouth-watering English cuisines you would definitely love to try at home. And, the notion of recreating a local dish that you like back in your Holiday apartments in London is always exciting.

Nevertheless, even if you are just preparing a meal for your loved ones, food safety precautions still need to be observed. If you want to ensure a fun, safe and memorable London holiday, follow these basic rules in handling and preparing food.

What You Should Keep In Mind

l  Always wash your hands before handling food and before eating them. The easiest way to spread germs is through dirty hands. Make sure you thoroughly wash your hands with soap and warm water.

l  Tables, kitchen counters, cupboards, and chopping boards should be kept clean at all times.

l  Make sure utensils and chopping boards are cleaned properly. Use warm soapy water to clean them.

l  Cutting boards for vegetables and cooked food should be different from the cutting boards that are used for fish and raw meat.

l  Keep ready-to-eat food like bread, cake, or fruits away from raw food to save them from being contaminated by bacteria. You wouldn’t be able to cook these food again in order to eliminate the microbes.
l  Store seafood, raw meat, and poultry in a container and place them in the lower part of the refrigerator. Use containers that are large enough to prevent the juices from dripping onto other food.

l  Always check the expiration date on grocery goods when shopping for food.

l  Follow cooking instructions for all foods.

l  Always reheat leftovers before eating.

l  Eat the leftovers within four days of cooking.

l  Cook food to the right temperature. You can use a digital food thermometer to help you measure if food is cooked well. Sometimes, it’s difficult to tell by just looking.


Many aparthotels London provide guests access to amenities that can be found in any home, like a private kitchen. There, you can experiment with any recipes you can think of (or think up) as you enjoy the experience of living in London like a true blue Londoner.
