A PR guru's star-studded party attended by Kate Moss and Idris Elba has infuriated his neighbours after they were kept awake by singing and blocked in by a number of limos.

Matthew Freud has since apologised for the 'deafening' noise coming from his £20million mansion in Primrose Hill during his annual London Fashion Week afterparty.

Neighbours said they were kept awake until 3am by loud music, doors slamming and guests singing along to the hit Rolling Stones song I Can't Get No Satisfaction.

They also claimed that streams of guests, including Bob Geldof, Naomi Campbell and Suki Waterhouse, blocked the road with their limos during the party last week.

One elderly woman, who has lived in the exclusive area for 25 years, said: 'The queue of cars and taxis and limos was awful.

'Not only the cars banging doors, but the engines and the chauffeurs - well, they all talk to each other, and they were so bloody loud.

'It seemed to go on from 3am onwards. I find it extraordinary that he's having a party which starts at midnight - on a weekday evening. 

'Last time he (Freud) put a lovely bottle of wine on everybody's doorstep to say thank you. But we didn't get that this time.

'We've lived here since 1961, and this is just not the right place for a big party like that. He's got a big place in the country, too. He should really just do it there.' 

A man in his 30s, who lives close to Freud's house, said his wife was kept awake by camera flashes through their windows. 

'Slam, slam, slam all night long. The music you can kind of deal with, because it's loud, but it's consistent. It doesn't surprise you,' he said.

'But the cars, people getting in and out of cars all night. Paparazzi were everywhere - camera flashes through the windows. It's so disruptive.' 

'It's complete not-giving-a-f**k. There was paparazzi everywhere, people everywhere, doors opening and closing until all hours.

'He doesn't give a f**k. Sorry to keep using that language, but he just does not care.

'There's a sense of powerlessness to, because no one complains anymore. It's gone on too long.' 

Kate Moss, who is a long-term friend of the PR guru, made the effort to come to the party even though she was on crutches.

The 42-year-old model still appeared in good spirits as she arrived alongside her boyfriend Count Nikolai von Bismarck. 

Camden Council confirmed that it received a complaint about a noisy party in Primrose Hill on Tuesday Febuary 23.

'I am profoundly sorry for any disturbance or inconvenience caused to my neighbours this week,' he said.

'I try and minimise noise pollution and ensure that there is no music after midnight but recognise that the arrivals and departures of these occasional events are a mighty pain in the arse for people living very close by.

'My apologies are sincere and my neighbours stretched tolerance deeply appreciated.'

A spokesman for Camden Borough Council said the complaint was lodged the morning after the party, so it was 'difficult for us to take any follow up action'.

'If residents are disturbed by noise during the night we always advise they call the Council while it is happening to get action taken.'
