Unique Items to Buy & Good for Presents

The circus and puzzle shop Odballs is definitely worth a visit. If it is not a busy time, the shop assistants will demonstrate tricks for you! Take time to walk around the parts of the market away from the centre...except Cyberdog which is worth the experience! Stroll away from the market down Camden High Street to Fabler Bakery and Coffee Shop for the best pretzels in London!!

Right next to the house. The canal is great for walking, running and cycling. You can do do a 10k run along the canal, around Regents Park and back ...all without crossing a main road! You can walk from East London to west, to Camden or take a canal boat ride. Great pubs & restaurants at Little Venice...walk west for about 3 miles

Next to Camden. We love walking here along the canal. It is closer and not as high as Parliament Hill and shows a different perspective of London, day and night. Lovely on New Years Eve...despite the cold!
