Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This Hackney hideaway is full of surprises. Whether you're soaking in the copper bathtub, relaxing in the infrared sauna, or enjoying a drink on the wrap-around terrace, we reckon you'll feel right at home here. Each room is colourful, bright, and ultra-comfortable – though two guests will sleep on a small sofa bed. Central London is within easy reach, thanks to the nearby Overground station, but Hackney itself is full of trendy eateries, cool bars, and independent shops. Many are just a short walk away – make sure to ask your delightful host, Jane, about all her favourite spots.

Local guide
About Hackney
Hackney – the name of this neighbourhood is now more likely to evoke the image of a hipster on a bicycle with a sourdough loaf stuffed in their satchel rather than anything else. Filled with great independent restaurants, cafes and pubs, this part of town is a delight to explore. The green expanses of London Fields and Victoria Park are pretty unbeatable on a summer's day and be sure to check out Broadway Market and Victoria Park Village too, where you'll wander through leafy streets of period houses, and rub shoulders with London's hip young arts and media types.

Explore Clissold Park
A beautiful park with historic buildings, a little canal, fountains, and a massive area for picnics or chilling. Enjoy the amazing playground for all ages, visit the animal enclosure with deer and goats, and take a leisurely walk around the scenic lake.
Experience World-Class Entertainment at The O2
The O2 Arena is an iconic venue in London, renowned for hosting concerts, sporting events, and exhibitions. With its unique design and stunning views of the city skyline, it offers an incredible experience for visitors. Don't miss the chance to be a part of the action at The O2.
Order takeaway from Yard Sale Pizza
Feeling lazy? Forget Dominos - these creative and passionate chefs with a wood-fire oven make what is probably the best takeaway pizza in town. And of course, they deliver.
Experience Turkish Cuisine with a twist at Pivaz
Serving up a broad variety of hearty Turkish and Mediterranean cuisine, Pivaz manages to deliver an authentic taste while maintaining a progressive and contemporary feel.
Dine at My Neighbours the Dumplings
Highly recommended by your host, this family-run dumpling restaurant follows the dim sum tradition of small plates cooked to perfection.
Go for a vegan meal at the Spread Eagle
London’s first 100% vegan pub has mastered the art of keeping up with the times while not losing its traditional pub charm. The food is Mexican & delicious, perfect with a pint or a creative cocktail.
Catch a flick at the Castle Cinema
This quirky little local gem is a one of the area’s best kept secrets. The perfect balance of quality sound & vision with cosy arm-chair seating and décor make the Castle a perfect indie picturehouse.
Soak up the sun at Millfields Park
Made up of three large open spaces around Lea Bridge and Chatsworth Road, it's a great spot to soak up the sun with the family or to join the Lea Valley walk.
Get your caffeine fix at Millfields Coffee
With its generously sized kitchen and in-house chef, Millfields is as much about casual all day dining as it is about coffee. We recommended their Turkish eggs.
Catch a game at London Stadium
Home to West Ham United FC and host to sports events and concerts, this huge stadium offers the chance to enjoy exciting matches and memorable performances during your time in London.
