Made up of the three ‘villages’, Highgate, South End Green and Hampstead, there are endless things to do. Wander the luscious heath, take in a spot of shopping or treat yourself to a taste sensation at one of the many bustling cafés and restaurants.   Shopaholics beware – it is virtually impossible to keep your wallet tucked away. The villages are packed with beautiful boutiques, gorgeous gift shops and high street favourites. Take time to explore the pretty alleyways where you’ll discover a trove of delightful original stores.

Hampstead village, South End Green and Highgate have an abundance of cafés, delis and restaurants to choose from. Whether you want a quick sandwich or nibbly bits to take for a picnic on the heath, a cup of strong coffee or sit down meal, you will be spoilt for choice.  There are good pubs to enjoy a night out with friends. You might not be rocking till dawn but you can sit and soak up the atmosphere in traditional boozers, have a meal in a gastro pub or take in a show at one of the fringe theatres.
