Living In Covent Garden, London
What Makes it Unique?
Covent Garden is located in the centre of London…
It is next to Holborn and Leicester Square and is a very busy (and tourist heavy!) area of London.
Due to the fact that it is a rather touristy area, it is often overlooked as being a residential area, but it certainly has its pros…
Firstly, it is home to many top superb theatres, bars and restaurants!
Regardless of how you like to spend your weekends or evenings, be it entertainment, food, drink or parks (Green Park is a 20 minute walk away and Hyde Park is a 30 minute walk away) Covent Garden can provide you with what you are after!
Living here makes it very, very difficult to get bored…
