fall out of fashion, with the air still
infused with refined class and
aristocratic merit. The roads are

it’s being practiced in SW3. Flats to
rent in South Kensington come in all

prized addresses is 161 Fulham Road -

10. Culture and the arts in South Kensington
The neighbourhood is best known for its ‘museum mile’ to the north towards
Hyde Park, where you’ll find the Science, the V&A and the Natural History
museums. Also packing a cultural punch is the Royal Albert Hall. For something
on a more intimate scale, visit The Drayton Arms on Old Brompton Road. It has a
fringe theatre on the first floor, with hand-picked companies presenting
innovative works almost nightly. Chelsea has some wonderful art galleries
including Saatchi Gallery, Cadogan Contemporary and Proud Chelsea.
11. Locals can often be found at
Chelsea Farmers’ Market on
Sydney Street - a collection of
one-off shops and restaurants
more than market stalls. Also
popular is The Chelsea Gardener -
probably London’s most upmarket
garden centre - and the Chelsea
Physic Garden, which is a hidden
oasis of botanic and apothecary
delights. For royal connections,
head to Kensington Palace and
Gardens - accessible on foot from
Fulham Road.
