First and foremost, Caroline is amazing. She literally communicated with me for the entire month before I came. She gave my friend and Me ideas of where to go, found me a place to eat on Christmas, just overall a gem of a person. Southwark/bermondsey is so stinkin cute! There are amazing cafes (hej and the watch house are my favs) and delicious pubs/restaurants (you must go to the gin bar). It's about a 10-15 minute walk to either tube stop, but it's a fine walk (my feet may have said differently on day 7). I definitely recommend staying here, walking outside and just getting lost and stop in pubs to have a drink! Enjoy!
