Greg’s place is well located for exploring Camberwell and the surrounds including Brixton. The Turkish supermarket on Camberwell New Rd is about a five-minute walk away and is good for fruit and veg.
The apartment has a great selection of books and nice house plants. It is near a fairly busy road and railway line, so everything can get a bit dusty.
For those thinking of working from the flat, the internet is via a mobile hotspot which does struggle with video calls or large files. Another aspect of the apartment which can take a little bit of figuring out is the hob. Greg recommended we only the use two front elements. There is a bit of trial and error involved in figuring out where to turn the knob to as the markings have faded.
For those steering clear of cooking, there are lots of good places on Camberwell Church st, just east of Camberwell Green. We enjoyed Momo, Falafel & Shawarma, and Caravaggio’s and had a nice drink at the Crooked Well. We hear great things about Silk Road but didn’t get around to it and like the look of Theo’s. Coffee and cake at the Love Walk Café were also good.
