Guidebook for London
Food Scene
There are few pizza restaurants in London that maintain such a high calibre. Fortunately for us, Sacro Coure is only 5 minutes walk from the house! Ingredients from Italy, as well as the staff, mean this is an all round delight. We've tried all the (veggie) options and they've always been amazing!

Drinks & Nightlife
Great in conjunction with a visit to the best pizza place in London (just across the road!). Although The Whippet Inn isn't the closest pub to the house it's certainly worth the extra 50 metres to get there! Well decorated and lit, this is a great place to have a few drinks or maybe enjoy a hearty meal.

A (slightly) hidden gem! Right next door to the famous Hampstead Heath this is a lesser visited treasure! This is how London looked centuries ago! With a few modern additions including a beautiful pagoda and garden walks. It's picturesque and well worth a visit.
