Things to do nearby
Bayswater trades on two things: parkland and connections. Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park start at the end of the street, while Paddington puts the Elizabeth line — and Heathrow, the City and Canary Wharf — within easy reach. Queensway and Westbourne Grove keep the evenings interesting, and Little Venice is a stroll north.
