Central London/Zone 2 / Primrose Hill area

Primrose Hill is an elegant enclave nestled between Regents Park and Camden town - it is a spacious quiet residential area very close to central London. It is a short walk alongside the canal to the famous Camden Lock Market. Besides its many pubs, Camden is now host to famous jazz and rock venues - a short walk away. In the other direction are the elegant shops and restaurants of Regents Park Road. Hampstead is just ten minutes to the North. Regents Park and Zoo are five minutes walk away.
Regents Park Road has many restaurants including an excellent fish restaurant which owns its own fishmongers and therefore is able to provide very fresh fish daily. There is also one of the best vegetarian restaurants in London, a smart French restaurant, Greek, Polish, Russian and other ecclectic restaurants in the street as well as a well stocked health food store selling take-away food. The Lansdown pub is just a few doors down and serves excellent quality food made with fresh produce.
One of London's canals is a few minutes walk down the road and it is possible to take a sightseeing barge trip from Camden Lock along the canal. You can also walk to little Venice along the canal path, by turning right at the bottom of the stairs and continuing to walk past the zoo.

Oxford Street and Regent street are separated from Primrose Hill by Regents Park, which makes it very close to the west end and a very pleasant quiet respite from the business of central London. There is a bus five minutes walk away that takes you to the West End. In the opposite direction is Chalk Farm tube, which is on the Northern Line.

Primrose Hill has a number of previous residents who are famous e.g. in Fitzroy road, very close to our flat, there is a plaque commemorating the residency of Sylvia Plath. W B Yeats also lived in the same street.

There are a number of exclusive shops as well as a few more practical ones in Regents park road (5minutes walk from the property). There are interior designers, shoe shops, a florist, clothes, a fishmonger, a health food shop, a grocery shop,an excellent one selling all household stores, an Italian delicatessen, a chemist, a wine shop etc. Up Gloucester ave, right over the bridge and right down the main road for 5 minutes, then right up a small hill (10 minutes walk altogether) is also a large supermarket.
