London
Beauty in Kensington
This park, in an upmarket residential neighbourhood, originally belonged to the now almost completely destroyed Holland House. Within the park you'll find a lake, beautifully kept gardens, woodland and a Japanese garden, plus facilities for children and an open-air theatre during the summer (tel. +44 20 7602 7856 for details of performances). Numerous sports facilities, for use by members, can also be found within the park – call +44 20 7471 9803 for details on membership.
Try a visit to Holland Park as a delightful break from Kensington High Street retail therapy and a chance to learn a little more about London's history in picturesque surroundings. You'll can get to the park in two ways – it's next to the Commonwealth Institute on High Street Kensington, and the other end is opposite Holland Park tube station.
