Vida Verde’s rooftop terrace is fantastic. We’re not going to lie, it doesn’t come with the best of best views, but we like that it’s equipped for having a good time – both summer and winter. The home itself also sets the scene for socialising, whether it’s cooking up a storm in the kitchen or over dinner. The immediate area is incredibly vibrant. Other than boasting several restaurants, coffee shops, and bars, you’ll also find plenty of independent boutiques and cool brunch spots.

The shower pressure is on the lower side and could be stronger

About St. Luke's
Located in the London Borough of Islington, just north of the border with the City of London and near the famous and much-loved Barbican Estate, the area takes its name from the church of St Luke's on Old Street. It's an unpretentious part of town - lots of casual pubs and friendly cafes to kick back in. St Luke's is also home to the wonderful Whitecross Street food market which...
