It’s an up and coming area with new apartment buildings coming up. The proximity to the Tate, Shakespeare’s Globe and the river make it an ideal spot in terms of activities and cultural enrichment. It is ideal for professionals, students and even young parents, who enjoy city life and being in the centre of a social and cultural ethos. While some parts of SE1 could use an uplift, the area is generally welcoming and offers something for everyone
Transport
Southwark station is nearby, offering quick links on Jubilee line to Canary Wharf within 9 minutes. Waterloo is also under a 10 minute walk, offering Northern and Bakerloo lines. It is also quite useful being connected to the South of England visa train station. There are also plenty of bus routes.

Direct walk to Southwark and Blackfriars bridge. Plenty of restaurants and superstores within a 3 minute walk. One of the downsides is the fact that it’s a main road, and parking is limited, however, it does not get too noisy.
Amenities
Southwark, and generally the SE1 area, is a vibrant place, with a variety of amenities all around. With no shortage of stores, there is always a Tesco or Sainsbury in sight, with a Waitrose on Stamford Street. There are plenty of restaurants from burger hubs like Byron, to bakeries such as Gails, which provide excellent ground coffee and freshly baked pastries. One of the most exciting spots is just a 10minute walk from Southwark station - Mercato. This bustling outdoor/indoor food hall boasts all sorts of different cuisines/snacks and street food, with craft beers and lagers available in abundance.
I am very fond of the rejuvenation projects ongoing in the area, it definitely looks needed with some buildings and such being extremely run down.
I am very fond of the rejuvenation projects ongoing in the area, it definitely looks needed with some buildings and such being extremely run down. There always seems to be homeless people around which is always sad to see, it would be nice to see more done for these people in need. The traffic in the area can be quite threatening, traffic systems should be simplified to reduce congestion and also speed cameras introduced as there is always speeding drivers around Elephant and Castle, it would also be nice to see investment into other areas such as Peckham, not only E&C.
Transport
Living in Elephant & Castle the transport links are second to none, having the Tube Station which has both the Bakerloo line and Northern line available for transport to areas north of the Thames, The Elephant & Castle Train Station has excellent links to South East London in very short journeys. Waterloo Station & Vauxhall Station offer excellent links to Southwest London as well as links to the South of England. Bus links are excellent also at Elephant & Castle with many buses having E&C as their starting/finishing destination
Community
Street Parking tends to be very difficult with limited spaces available, of which free spaces are almost always used. Central Elephant & Castle tends to be a fairly noisy and busy place to be but this seems to ease down significantly at night.
Amenities
There are many popular shops around however around Elephant & Castle area, the closing of the Elephant Shopping Centre has seen the disappearance of small businesses in the area.
I love how close everything and nothing seems to far or trouble.

This is superb. You have tube, train and bus. Also plenty of taxis too. I never feel scared walking round there late at night

It’s a real shame the area falls into the weekend congestion zone as less people will visit if the base grt

Considering you are so close the Thames here there is still a good amount of open space and great amenities in the area
I like the privacy and the abundance of shops and restaurant in the streets, I consider it up market

It's a great area and has been under some regeneration which seems to be making it better.
