Stayed here before and I always enjoy returning. Superbly located accommodations for local stores and transportation links (bus, Tube and rail). Museum and historic buildings including Barnet Church and Tudor Hall from Elizabeth I. Beautiful park closeby and Hadley Common 10 minutes walk away. Restaurants are plentiful here and there's a small shopping center (the Spires) with an H and M. No need to drag into the center of London. Lots to do nearby!
