Chiswick

It’s hard to find fault with a neighbourhood that’s literally named after a cheese farm.

And Chiswick lives up to its illustrious past with a relaxed, village feel that radiates from the tree-lined high road. Pop into buzzy brasseries for lunch al fresco, or watch black & white movies at the plush indie cinema. Pick up the goods at the weekly farmer’s market outside Chiswick House, then head in to soak up the stately neoclassical interiors. Nose around second-hand bookshops, and a flower market to rival the East End. And yes… there’s a market for cheese, too.
