Behind a beautifully renovated townhouse facade lies an interior that is bright and beautiful in equal measures. The living room has the feel of a contemporary art gallery, with high ceilings, parquet flooring and striking pieces on the wall. Although saying that, we haven't been to a gallery with such cute pastel-pink, tufted furnishings. The kitchen is just as striking, thanks to the large windows, the flurry of house plants and handsome marble surfaces. So striking in fact, that we crowned it 'kitchen of the year' on Instagram. As well as letting in copious amounts of natural light, the French door also leads out to a charming garden space with some seating for warm evenings. Upstairs, the bedrooms are both large and equipped with regal beds, while there's even a balcony space looking out over the rooftops of East London and the distant skyscrapers in The City. However, you don't even have to go far to find things to do in the neighbourhood. Just around the corner, there's the Castle Cinema — an Art Deco building reopened after a local crowdfunding campaign — and Chatsworth Market, which runs every Sunday with a great range of independent stalls.

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.

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.
