Notting Hill used to be a bohemian village with artists and writers. Nowadays the place is far too expensive for them. It still maintains a nice atmosphere with its restaurants, cafés, shops and markets though. Pastel coloured houses mix neatly with street art. Most of the authenticity is gone, but it still offers some delights even for people on a budget. This has been a set for many romantic comedies, including the one with the name of the area.
