I only ever go down to London for either work stuff which is just same day stuff, or for gigs/ clubs, in which case me and my mates stay at a hotel in Holborn. Easy enough to walk to from Kings Cross.
Last time I was down for recreation we went to Shoreditch, Brick Lane then on to Fabric in Farringdon.
I really like London, it's a great place to visit. Pretty sure it's very different to living there.

You can access your pension fund at 55, so you could take your 25% PCLS and put the rest into drawdown with no income taken. It'll easily recover the 25% by the time you hit 60.
