April-Nov Tues-Sun noon-5pm; GBP3. Tube: Hampstead.

Hampstead's most lustrous figure is celebrated at Keats' House , an elegant, whitewashed Regency double villa on Keats Grove, a short walk south of Willow

Road. Inspired by the peacefulness of Hampstead and by his passion for girl-next-door Fanny Brawne (whose house is also part of the museum), Keats wrote some of his most famous works here before leaving for Rome, where he died from consumption in 1821. The neat, rather staid interior contains books and letters, Fanny's engagement ring and the four-poster bed in which the poet first coughed up blood, confiding to his companion, Charles Brown, "that drop of blood is my death warrant".
