If you want to experience the lifestyle of a real Londoner, then come with me and see London like a local! I'll show you around a couple of London's most charming village locations and best views of the city, where I have been living for more than a decade.
Welcome to Crouch Ed! This has been my home for many years and I would love to show you around. Enjoy its charming Victorian architecture, wonderful coffee shops, vintage shops and artisan food. Its one of the favorite places in London for creative residents and is the home of many famous actors, musicians, and filmmakers.
For one of the finest views of London from one of its highest points, I'll take you to a famous Victorian palace. This gem has a fascinating history from legendary rock concerts to horse racing and the early days of BBC television. The best part? You'll have the opportunity to enjoy a refreshing drink from a superb vantage point to take in the London skyline for a picture perfect finale!
As an alternative or optional extension, let's go on a short journey to another nearby picturesque London village. Famed for Dick Whittington, Highwaymen, Monty Python and royal mistresses, this place has incredible stories and I'll tell you all about them! Here, musicians such as Sting, George Michael, and Ray Davies have all called home at some point.
And to cheers for an incredible local experience in London, I'll take you to the finest pubs that Great Britain has to offer. With a beautiful location convenient for further adventures on nearby Hampstead Heath or returning to central London. The choice is yours!
