Best known for… Hampstead Heath, hill-top position, literary alumni, bohemian vibe, boutique shops and café society.
Area overview: Hampstead overlooks London from its lofty hilltop position and is one of the most highly sought-after areas to live in the capital.
The area is steeped in history and known for its intellectual, artistic, musical and literary associations - from John Keats to George Orwell.
Mature students are especially keen on Hampstead because of its village-like atmosphere. It is situated north-west of the City and is part of the
London Borough of Camden.
Social: Hampstead Heath is one of London’s most popular open spaces and a great spot for summer picnics and days out with friends. For
evening entertainment, Hampstead has a selection of highly-regarded pubs, bars, and restaurants. But nearby Camden is home to a much
wider range of venues for nights out.
Cultural: As well as having four theatres and a cinema, Hampstead is home to The Freud Museum, Keats House, Kenwood House, Fenton House,
The Isokon Building, Burgh House, and the Camden Arts Centre.
Sport and leisure: Hampstead Heath has a chain of ponds, including three open-air public swimming pools. Its vast green spaces offer a
beautiful setting for keen runners. Sports enthusiasts can join a range of clubs, from skittles and golf to tennis and rugby.
Transport: Travelling to any of London’s university campuses is easy from Hampstead and Belsize Park underground stations (Northern Line),
Hampstead Heath rail station and numerous buses. Residents can also catch the Jubilee Line at Swiss Cottage, or overground trains from
Finchley Road and Hampstead stations.
