Maida Vale

Introducing Maida Vale

Maida Vale’s Victorian mansions might be handsome, but it's the waterways that provide the flavour of the neighbourhood. This is where the Grand Union Canal peters out in the Paddington Basin and joins the Regent's Canal. With slender houseboats gently rocking and weeping willows sweeping the water, the locals call this area Little Venice, and the Neapolitan pizzas on Formosa Street should sate any Italianate longings.
