Primrose Hill

As its name suggests, this bougie suburb is set on a hill – 63 metres above sea level, in fact. It’s prime territory for cityscape panoramas, picnics and kite flying. Fill your hamper at artisanal delis and wineries nearby (the Saturday farmers’ market is especially bountiful) or linger among its ice-cream-coloured houses, see-and-be-seen boutiques and fanciful cafés.
