Camden Town: an alternative place for shopping
Roam around Camden markets and get yourself lost in the buzz of numerous cloth stalls: Camden Market, Electric Ballroom, Camden Lock Village Market, Camden Market, The Stables, Inverness Street market. Apart from retro cloths you can get meals from world cuisines. Camden Town art life is also very rich and diverse, here is the Roundhouse with live performances, Camden Proud and Proud Galleries. If you want to get away from the buzz and have more relaxed time in Camden, walk along the Regents canal, which will lead you to a Little Venice, feed the birds and watch the boats passing by. Regents Park and London Zoo is just around the corner, so Camden Town can be an ideal place both for a family day out, or for party goers. Short Let London tenants who are staying in our holiday apartments and short term flats in Swiss Cottage, Kilburn Park, and South Hampstead are walking distance away from this interesting area, Short Let London recommends staying here as you are not far at all from the iconic and legendary area of London.
