About

Little Venice is a tranquil residential enclave in Westminster, centred around the picturesque junction of the Grand Union and Regent's Canals. The area is characterised by its waterways, lined with colourful narrowboats and weeping willow trees. Pathways along the water lead to several waterside pubs and cafes, creating a distinct village atmosphere within the city.
