London is a collection of villages. From leafy Hampstead, with its winding cobbled streets, quaint cafes and endless greenery, to the busy thrum of Harringay's Green Lanes or Peckham's pulsing restaurants and bars, the city is as varied as it is vast. This isn't a guidebook to major landmarks or big tourist attractions; it's a selection of real recommendations to the places loved by locals, for Londoners and visitors alike.
