A village high street beside Regent's Park
Marylebone feels like a village in the middle of the West End, built around a high street of independent shops, cafés and delis. The Wallace Collection, a free museum in a grand townhouse, sits just off it.
Regent's Park is a short walk north, and Baker Street, with its Sherlock Holmes connection, is close by.
