Pros
- Parent context: Why do Hampstead and Richmond not feel very Londoney? We r visiting soon and planned to see those areas too. Reply: Very leafy, old buildings and great pubs and parks
- Hampstead. It is a tad expensive but the pubs and cafes are amazing and you can have a lovely walk in the park, go round the ponds, see lots of dogs
- Hampstead, wander around the village, grab a coffee, walk through the Heath.
- If you haven’t been to Hampstead that’s worth a day.
- Hampstead is a beautiful part of London. If you feel like strolling through some twisty streets with pristine gardens then you will not be disappointed. Burgh House gallery and cafe is very nice for a break. The high street has plenty of...
Cons
- Hampstead also lovely but a bit less convenient I think.
- In my opinion there's really not much to do in Hampstead with a kid.

Hampstead is a beautiful part of London. If you feel like strolling through some twisty streets with pristine gardens then you will not be disappointed. Burgh House gallery and cafe is very nice for a break. The high street has plenty of cafes too. And you can wander through the Heath too, which is huge, peaceful woodland.
I’ve stayed in Hampstead twice and it was awesome!
Spending a day walking around Hampstead by yourself would be nice too. A bit further out but was my favorite day when I went to London last year with my girls.
If you're after an older artsy area where you can see a lot of literary/art/cultural icons have lived and been inspired by - Hampstead is nice.
