Discover Dulwich
The former St Francis Hospital, now no longer in operation, was sited in the hamlet of Dulwich, just six miles from central London. Dulwich retains a lovely village feel, and has plenty to offer visitors. Don't miss the excellent Dulwich Picture Gallery, which includes works by Old Masters. Nearby Dulwich Park offers a charming boating lake, while further north, East Dulwich's Lordship Lane is a hub of independent retailers, cafes and eateries. Top it all off with a pint in the bustling East Dulwich Tavern.
Explore Peckham's nightlife
A quick bus ride north of the old St Francis Hospital, the neighbourhood of Peckham has become the capital's coolest in recent years. The Bussey Building plays hosts to regular live music and hop club nights, as well as being a hub for artists and creatives. Frank's Cafe sits atop a car park, offering cocktails and stunning views of the London skyline, while Bar Story boasts one of south London's best happy hours and a quirky, DIY aesthetic.
Experience Brixton
A 15 minute bus journey from St Francis Hospital, busy Brixton is booming. Head to Pop Brixton for hip street food and stylish cocktails, or Brixton Market for global cuisine and quirky crafts. Brixton is also famous for its music venues. O2 Academy Brixton welcomes big-name live acts, while Phonox is one of the capital's leading electronic music venues.
