Offering an intimate view of the city, this unique guidebook allows you to explore the capital city's best local neighbourhoods, highlighting the small, locally-known enclaves of independent shops, cafs and public spaces that give the capital its inimitable character.

From Columbia Road to Clarendon Cross, there are dozens of tucked away 'villages' in London and this compendium of thirty of the most unique and vibrant is your key to exploring the city in a new way. Whether you want to enjoy a few glasses of pinot gris at a local bistro before catching an independent art-house film in Bermondsey street, or if you would prefer to indulge in a beauty spa before browsing the cheeses, meats and wines of MacFarlanes deli in Abbeville village, this guide will have something to suit all tastes and preferences.
