At this time of year, some areas of London really come into their own, like Belsize Park. The 'Belsize' comes from the French word bel assis meaning well-situated, and nestled between Hampstead and Camden it lives up to its name. Here are five things you can do to see why it's especially lovely in the autumn:

Walk around the neighbourhood when the sun comes out.

Have cakes and coffee at Roni's Bakery. They also do a mean bagel.

Take in a movie at the Everyman - the seats are super comfy.

Finish with a hearty meal and a glass of red at the reasonably priced Chez Bob, or venture to one of the other local restaurants. Perfect day!
