Where did January go? With Valentines in the air, half term taking place and March fast approaching, thoughts are turning to what next….
London has its own unique beauty and here are a few ideas for your forthcoming visits.
Guys and Dolls
The Bridge Theatre
3rd March – 2nd September 2023
In the shadow of Tower Bridge, The Bridge Theatre transforms one of the greatest musicals of all time. It has more hit songs, more laughs and more romance than any show ever written; a truly wonderful oddball romantic comedy.
Orchid Festival
Kew Gardens
4th February – 5th March 2023
There are two weeks to run for this much-loved wonderful Annual festival at Kew Gardens. Inspired by the beauty and biodiversity of Cameroon, ‘Orchids 2023’ is a vibrant celebration of colour and warmth to brighten up the winter months.
Columbia Road Flower Market
Bethnal Green
On the subject of flowers every Sunday, Columbia Road is transformed into a bustle of foliage, flowers, herbs, bulbs and shrubs. It really is a vibrant kaleidoscope of colours and smells. Around the market there is also a mass of independent shops, selling everything from jewellery and vintage clothes, to antiques and art. A great place for a lovely mooch!
Borough Market
London Bridge
Not a new idea but still one of the best ways to discover a wonderful array of fresh food in London, based on the Southbank near Southwark Cathedral. Here you have a great opportunity to enjoy a 3 hour long private tour led by the founder of Borough Market's original and only official tour, Celia Brooks. Celia will show you the best that Borough has to offer and lavish you with bespoke tastings of the unique foods and wines on offer. You will taste an array of treats & fine wine (and more delicious boozy tipples) as part of this educational and demystifying Borough Market experience.
Keats House
Discover the beauty of poetry and place in the home of Romantic poet John Keats.
This beautiful Regency villa brings to life the memory and legacy of Keats through its tranquil garden and a lively programme of tours and special events.
Little Venice
‘The Grand Canal in London’ Little Venice, with its beautiful canals and waterways is a wonderful place to while away the hours. From its numerous walks or relaxing in Rembrandt Park this is one of London's most picturesque and serene places that many are unaware exists in this vibrant city.
London Eye
South Bank
Bear with me on this one …… often classed as perhaps one of the most touristy things to do in London however ‘The Champagne Experience’ is a wonderful way to elevate the ride and enjoy the wonderful views back over the roof of your club while sipping Champagne. Great for a Winter sunshine day or indeed as dusk falls and the landmarks light up.
Black Cab Tour
If you love all that London has to offer there’s few people that know the streets better than ‘a cabbie’. Using the "knowledge” the tours have a commentary throughout with plenty of historical facts, secrets and trivia about the UK’s fantastic capital City all in a traditional black taxi.
Tours can be personalised and departs and returns to the Club, ranging from 1 to 8 Hours to suit your schedule.
