LONDON —
BRITISH BABYLON
|


Everyone must see London. It just
might be the most youthful and interesting city in the world. London is chaotic,
loud, diverse, and sophisticated. It is British Babylon. It is theatre,
shopping, museums, royal pageantry, landmarks, red buses and black cabs.

"We had an outstanding holiday. Accommodations at St.
Katharine's Marina were well-situated, safe. Ground/area
very attractive. Excellent amenities. Close to Underground
and buses. A joy to walk from our flat and be at the Tower
Bridge and Tower of London in three or four minutes! The
supermarket right across the street a major plus. We'll be
doing our second Home At First trip next summer!"

HOME AT FIRST’s
London apartments are located in
historic,
beautiful St. Katharine’s Marina just east of the
Tower of London and the Tower Bridge. Once an important warehouse center
for high-value imports, this westernmost section of London's redeveloped
Docklands is now a large, sequestered yacht basin. A pedestrians-only
zone, the marina is lined with modern apartment buildings, and numerous
upscale shops, restaurants, and

apartments at St.
Katharine's Marina are a 5-minute
traffic-free walk from the Tower Hill
Underground stop. From here, all of downtown London may be reached
within 30 minutes. |

"The St. Katharine's Marina location was absolutely
captivating, with the harbor full of boats and The Tower
nearby. An ideal location for our adventures out each day to
explore the city via 'the tube'."

After long days of
London history,
culture, fashion, and theatre, return to a friendly pint at a
local pub.
Or make a quick stop at a local market for fresh food and a bottle of
wine to enjoy on your balcony overlooking a peaceful courtyard or the
yacht-lined marina.
