Located in Highgate - its our favourite pub. The Flask is very traditional with roaring log fires, good food and drinks and is dog friendly. It has a big garden with heaters where you can eat and drink. The Flask is also opposite where George Michael used to live and the memorial garden is maintained beautifully. Worth a visit.

Highgate Wood is a short walk away from our house. I walk the dogs there most days - it's an enclosed woodland with a big open space and a cafe in the middle. Great for walks and especially picnics in the summer. Lots of wildlife, flora and fauna.
