The entertainment and culinary attractions of Brixton, Kennington and Camberwell are all close by and if the weather's good you can practice your forehand at the tennis courts in Myatt's Fields Park. It also has an astro turf for a good game of footie, a paddling pool and a playground.

The local

Just a few doors down is the Prince of Wales at 49 Knatchbull Road. It's been recently refurbished. It serves food daily from 12 noon to 9pm and until 6pm on Sunday (for Sunday roast). The bar shows live sports and there's a garden too. If you like darts, there's a competition every Sunday.
