The area around Bow is typical of East London. A hub of vibrance, community and life punctuated by much quieter side streets and small neighbourhoods within neighbourhoods, which make it a fantastic area to live for all comers. From the apartment, you’ll find yourself within easy reach of connecting rail services to all parts of the city, particularly Stratford International which is the largest station in East London.
Sports fans will fall in love with the area for its proximity to the home of London’s 2010 Olympic Games at Queen Elizabeth Park and West Ham United’s London Stadium. With the impressive Westfield Shopping Centre (one of the largest in Europe) located across the other side of the park, you’ll never be short on places to browse for the latest gadgets and potential additions to your wardrobe.
There are more than enough fantastic spots to eat, drink and dance out around the area, with particular mention being made to the warehouse district just to the north in Hackney Wick if you fancy getting out and exploring one night or on the weekend for all of the above!
Bow is located in zone 2 of the London Travel Zone, meaning the average price of tickets is slightly higher for journeys into the city centre but not by much. The closest London Underground station to the apartment is Bow Road, with the average journey into the centre of London taking ten minutes from that station.
The Docklands Light Railway (or. DLR as you’ll see it usually listed) is a great service to access Canary Wharf and other destinations south of the river, as well as London City Airport, which is the closest airport to the apartment. Stratford International railway station is a fantastic connective route for railway services both into and out of the city, as well as London Overground and Underground services and national bus services.
There is a good selection of bus routes within Bow, as well as several night buses to avoid hefty late-night taxi fares! If you’re considering driving around the area, Bow is outside of London’s congestion charge zone but for any journeys into the congestion area, you will have to pay £15 for the privilege of doing so, so maybe it is best to stick to the tube!
