The Neighborhood: Frankie Says that you have to stay in Borough, as it arguably one of Central London's most historic and fascinating neighbourhoods; a totally gorgeous and immersive 'melting pot' that is famous for its gastronomic and cultural delights.
Bordered by the Thames to the north, you are also next to the incredible Southwark Cathedral and the historic Clink Street. But importantly, you are ridiculously close to the complete foodie heaven that is Borough Market. This is the original Food Hall experience, but with worldwide punching power – you will never be hungry for boredom! Just a few minutes away is what Frankie Says is the coolest High street in London – Bermondsey Street. Packed full of coffee, pints, food, wine, cakes and much intrigue. Old world charm meets a crisp modern England. Next door to Bermondsey Street is Maltby Street market, another haven for foodies, whilst you must promise to visit the Vinegar Market on a Sunday – its packed is unique oddities.
To the back of our funky house is the ground-breaking Borough Yards, a recent development that saw railway arches turned into a clutch of dining and shopping experiences, with even it’s own Everyman cinema!
You can see the Shard from our terrace, so take a trip up to the top, to London’s best viewing gallery, and look down up Tower Bridge, Shad Thames and The Tower of London, all that are just a quick walk away.
We know you will be star struck by this pocket of London. It’s unrivalled in our opinion, authentic and original, but modern and smooth. But just in case you want to explore elsewhere then pop down to the Jubilee line underground station, only 190m away, at London Bridge station. Or hop on an Uber boat at London Bridge Pier. But, you’re be back to Borough before you know it…Borough always drags you back.
Getting Around: Getting around Borough and London Bridge? It’s a walk in the park! Start at London Bridge Station (Jubilee or Northern Line), where you can catch the iconic view of the Shard. Fancy food? Borough Market has enough grub to make your stomach do a happy dance. History? Visit the medieval Southwark Cathedral or cross the Thames to check out Tower Bridge. For a bit of drama, stand on London Bridge and pretend you're in a thriller as the city pulses below you. Who’s got time for dull commutes? Not you!
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Comically bad customer service
-The building is split into 3 units and we booked all 3 as we had 11 people. Frankie Says had locked us out of two of the units when we arrived.-Sent us on a wild goose chase across London for a key that didn't exist-Spoke to us like they were doing is a favor letting us stay there, rather than a group who had paid a vast amount (not good value). -Top room temps got up to 36C, even with fans. -Not suitable for families due to the endless noise from bars and rubbish trucks.-The kids feet were covered in dirt when walking on the floors. Seemed like the floors hadn't been washed for years. -Borough market itself is great, so would come back to the area.-The beds were comfortable.
