Borough Market
One of London's oldest food markets, trading produce, cheese and street food under the railway arches.
Area guide
Bankside is the south bank at its best: a Thames-side walk that links Borough Market's food halls, Tate Modern's turbine hall and Shakespeare's Globe in under a mile. The Clink Prison Museum sits on Clink Street itself — effectively our doorstep — and London Bridge puts the City one stop away.
Highlights
Tate Modern
Free modern-art collections in the old Bankside power station, with a viewing level over the river.
Southwark Cathedral
A quiet Gothic cathedral and garden beside the market gates.
The Clink Prison Museum
The medieval prison that gave Clink Street its name — a two-minute walk from our apartments.
The Shard & London Bridge
The city's tallest viewing gallery, plus fast rail and tube links from London Bridge.
Eat & drink

Monmouth Coffee, Neal's Yard Dairy and Bread Ahead in one lane.
