Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Just a two minute walk from Oval tube station, this cosy apartment couldn’t be better placed for exploring London, from the city centre to the West End. With a fully-equipped kitchen and dining area, you can enjoy a homecooked meal, though you are of course within close proximity to the array of eateries that line Kennington Road. What makes this home stand out is the rooftop terrace – a rarity for London flats – which offers fresh air and some outdoor space.

About Kennington
Kennington is one of London's best kept secrets. It's famously home to the major cricket ground The Oval, but we're more interested in its Georgian architecture (check out the charming Cleaver Square, where you'll find locals playing boules and a cosy pub) and proximity to the cultural delights of the nearby South Bank. It's a diverse area, popular with young professionals and families alike - a good area to experience a taste of real London away from the tourists.
Explore the area
Local restaurants, cafes, museums, sites and activities, recommended by our community of hosts and travel experts
Grab a pub lunch at The Fentiman Arms
Enjoy a collection of cask and keg beers. The interiors are cosy and cushion laden, and the beer garden is a great spot in the summer.
Appreciate contemporary at The Sunday Painter
It started with a group of friends exhibiting at a South London Pub and is now showcasing upcoming Artists in their new Peckham home, becoming a new reference in the South East.
Explore Kennington Park
A small but charming Victorian park with workout stations, a delightful cafe serving wood-fired pizzas and pastries, and a shop where you can buy handmade honey produced in the park. Perfect for picnics and dog walks.
Support the community chefs at Bonnington Café
This local gem is a must. Come here for cheap and cheerful homemade vegetarian & vegan meals prepared by local neighbourhood cooks who take turns sharing their international menus with adoring locals.
