Camberwell is the bustling and leafy hub of South London. Pleasant and leafy side roads offer parks and pubs, whilst the busy main streets are major bus routes and lots of shopping options. You'll also find one of London's busiest hospitals.

Eltham Palace is easily missed but a great place to visit from our house. A medieval royal palace that was once home to Henry VIII, restored more recently in an art deco style by the Courtauld family. Just a few stops away on the train.
