The apartments are just across the canal from Shoreditch Park Hoxton, an incredibly popular part of London to live in thanks to its many independent bars, clubs and restaurants and microbreweries. You’ll never be short of a few places to eat in or out of living in this area but, for those looking to find a solid place to shop for everything and anything they might need, look no further than Brick Lane Market in nearby Shoreditch.
The area may be more well known these days for its curry houses but, Brick Lane offers a fantastic open market filled with fresh produce, vintage furniture and exquisite items to add to your wardrobe on the weekends. Shoreditch and its incredible high street are very popular, especially in the evening for going out for dinner or drinks, so at some places you may want to think about booking in advance.
You can walk along the lovely Regent’s Canal around most of central London and to the embankment along the River Thames (if you’re feeling particularly active!) or, make the most of pleasant strolls through Shoreditch Park to enjoy stretching your legs, without having too far to travel for exercise somewhere greener!
The closest railway station is just a short walk down the street to Essex Road station. Travel from there to Liverpool Street Station for multiple route connections or, if you’re looking to get on the London Overground right away, the nearest station is Hoxton, which is an 18-minute walk away from the apartment.
For local airports, London Stanstead is a short train ride with the Stanstead Express running services from Liverpool Street Station (average journey time of 45-50 minutes). There are multiple bus routes in the area which you can use in case you’re unable to travel by rail for any reason.
If you’re looking to drive into the city centre or around London in general, be aware that there is a daily congestion charge for vehicles driving into the City Centre of £15 per day, so make sure you check where you’re going before you drive around the city as fines for not paying the charge can be very expensive!
