Pet Friendly Places to Live in London

London is a great place to live if you have pets, especially if you have a dog. London boasts acres of open green space, dog-friendly cafés, activities, and attractions. If you are considering moving to the capital with a pet, look at our top 5 areas to live:

Greenwich is famed for its beautiful park, offering a great place to go for a walk with your pooch. Alongside the luscious green spaces, you’ll find pet-friendly pubs and cafés, so after a long walk, there are plenty of places to stop to refuel. Whether you fancy a coffee or something a little stronger. 

2. Hampstead

As well as gorgeous green spaces like Parliament Hill, Hampstead also has the added advantage of Gaucho’s famous Doggy Sunday Brunch. Gaucho’s brunch is a great way to meet other dog owners in London as well as enjoy some delicious food and a few drinks.

Battersea is an obvious addition to the list with its long history of rehoming and caring for dogs. Battersea Dogs Home is not the only thing that makes Battersea pet friendly.
