Where to live in London with a toddler pt 5 – Kennington
Kennington is home to MPs, random pop stars and other minor celebrities. It’s also close to the middle of town and bits of it are eye-wateringly expensive. As an area, it doesn’t have a huge amount of centre but there … Continue reading
Where to live with a toddler in London pt 4 – Hackney
Hackney may not be the most obvious place to live with small children, being more associated with hipsters and struggling musicians. But there is a growing community of parents, some of them still hipsters and struggling musicians, and the area … Continue reading
