Surprisingly, a third of London is made up of public green spaces. Make the most of our free gardens whilst the weather is at it’s peak. Grab a picnic in your favorite park or enjoy the dappled sunlight with a tall glass of Pimms. Our favorite London park is Postmans Park in St Pauls.
Tip: Check out the botanical Psyche Gardens in Chelsea for something a little different.
