Guest Access:
Guests have full access to the property throughout their stay.
The Neighborhood:
The property is based right in the middle of both Elephant and Castle and Kennington.
Kennington is excellently placed for some of the best cultural experiences in the Capital. It’s a mere 15 minute walk to the South Bank, the heartland of The Thames, and its theatres, galleries and concert venues, while the Tate Britain is within walking distance, too. Closer to home, The Riverside offers locals the chance to indulge on the river front, whilst a riverside walk showcases the current development taking place in Nine Elms.
You can enjoy a wide range of cuisines here, from Persian to Eritrean and beyond. A branch of Vietnamese street food chain Aobaba can be found on Walworth Road, while the Portuguese cafes and tapas bars of the South Lambeth Road are well known for their authenticity. The daytime Ragged Canteen is an excellent vegetarian lunch spot and the upmarket Brunswick House close to Vauxhall serves up an imaginative seasonal menu amid recycled furniture, antiques and curios.
There are plenty of great pubs in the area. Locals love Cleaver Square’s cosy Prince of Wales, or try Zeitgeist, a German gastropub offering regional beers, schnitzels and burgers. The Pilgrim Pub is a popular spot to catch live music or watch sports.
Located just south of Waterloo, Elephant and Castle is one of those rare London areas which boasts a central location and excellent transport links. Elephant and Castle has a creative energy with new independent businesses such as those found in The Artworks hub (think yoga studios, Mauritian cafes, and vintage clothes shops). It’s rapidly becoming one of South London’s hottest places to live!
Getting Around:
- Kennington tube station - 5 mins walk (Northern line)
- Elephant & Castle tube station - 5 mins walk (Northern, Bakerloo lines)
- Elephant & Castle mainline station - 5 mins walk (direct trains to Blackfriars, City Thameslink)
- Buses - lots of them!
Other Things to Note:
During the summer months the train can be heard because the windows are usually open due to the warmer weather.
