Knightsbridge Parks

For a picnic, an evening stroll, or full-on exercise Hyde Park is right on the doorstep behind the impressive Brompton Oratory. The Park opens every day from 5am to midnight and offers plenty of space and activities – come rain or shine. During the summer months popular musical events are held here and in the winter (November-January) a Winter Wonderland is the main festive attraction.

Kensington Gardens: recently voted one of the UK’s favourite outdoor spaces, (daily mail website – image) it’s a smaller, quieter space with lots of points of interest and places to explore: the Peter Pan statue, the Italian Gardens, the Serpentine Gallery and the Diana, Princess of Wales memorial playground.
