Holborn

London, United Kingdom

Time spent in Holborn is time well spent. Home to a myriad of new offices, cafes and shops, this is an important commercial area in London. But it wasn’t always like that. Holborn used to be a very popular suburb during the medieval period, with houses increasing during the time. Now, it has a variety of housing options, which can be much more affordable than areas such as Soho, Kensington and Fitzrovia. Located in the boroughs of Camden and City of Westminster, in Zone One, Holborn has a very privileged location among the most popular areas in London. With that being said, you should also know that this district is located near great museums, such as the British Museum, Sir John Soane’s Museum, and the Hunterian Museum. For some “not too cultural activities”, you can always head to Oxford Circus, Regent Street or Covent Garden to go shopping. Uniplaces helps you find cosy and fully furnished flats to rent in Holborn and surrounding areas, such as one-bedroom apartments located near the Holborn High street, for example. The best thing is that this district gives access to public transport thanks to its underground stations (Chancery Lane and Holborn) and a number of local buses.

Traditionally a popular district among lawyers and journalists, Holborn became home to professionals and expat couples.

The lifestyle
