I've lived in Camberwell for just over 10 years and love living here. In zone 2, we are so close to the centre of London but manage to achieve a really lovely community village-type feel. Our neighbours have lived here for generations and really look out for us; the bars are really great and there are some fantastic gastropubs - one of which we were lucky enough to get married in! Our wedding was at Southwark Registry Office at the end of Havil Street and we came back to the flat and had WONDERFUL photos in the green across from our flat and champagne with the neighbours, followed by a fabulous dinner and party at The Bear – on the other side of Camberwell Green towards Oval. Burgess Park has hosted many a birthday party in the summer in the BBQ areas. And friends coming from North London are always amazed and impressed with how lovely the area is and how close to the centre of London we are.

Camberwell is a district of south London, England, and forms part of the London Borough of Southwark. It is a built-up inner city district located 2.7 miles (4.3 km) southeast of Charing Cross. To the west it has a boundary with the London Borough of Lambeth. Camberwell today is a mixture of relatively well preserved Georgian and twentieth century housing, including a number of tower blocks. Camberwell Grove and Grove Lane have some of London's most elegant and well preserved Georgian houses.
