Oval is a down-to-earth district anchored by a namesake cricket ground, which draws huge crowds to international fixtures. Nearby, chestnut trees and seasonal cherry blossoms line footpaths in Vauxhall Park, also popular for its tennis and basketball courts. The area is a transport hub, with buses, trains, and underground services from Vauxhall station, plus ferries to key London landmarks from St. George Wharf Pier.

"Winnie’s Baked Goods was a lockdown success for baker Caitlin Wymes, who spent the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic dedicated to perfecting her cookie recipes. Today, the thriving south London micro-bakery offers four cookies that span a litany of flavours, textures and sizes for postal delivery via her website and occasional drops on trendy London food marketplace Delli. The best of the four is the the jumbo chocolate, pecan and walnut cookie, rooted firmly in the archetypal style of Levain Bakery in New York City and producing an extra-thick chunky cookie full of texture and surprise." - Emma Louise Pudge
