If you want a peaceful day out of the busy city, Highgate doesn’t really feel like London. The cemetery is interesting and peaceful, there’s a tour of the old half which is definitely worth the money. Karl Marx, among others are buried there.

This is my favourite place to have a morning coffee in London. Its real chilled and the music is always perfectly set to welcome the day in, its usually something I have never heard before too. The coffee is good and the tip jar they have is the best tip jar in the world so make sure you bring a bag of pennies. Sit with your sketch book and have a lil think.
