It is one of London’s most desirable areas to live, looking down on Central London from its lofty position. Once the home of Keats, Elgar, Betjeman and Agatha Christie, Hampstead today is still chosen by artists, writers and actors. Its centre is a delightful melange of quirky shops, cafés and restaurants, and Hampstead Heath is both a pastoral idyll in summer and an attractively rugged expanse in winter. On a blustery day, fly a kite on Parliament Hill.
