Sun’s Out, (Burger) Buns Out: 8 Places To Picnic In London
Living in the UK comes with the expectation of very limited sunny climes, so it’s hardly surprising we flock to beaches or the nearest green space to make the most of the sporadic British sunshine when it comes our way. But, in the concrete jungle that is London, it can be hard trying to find a safe haven away from the hustle and bustle of the busy streets, shrieking toddlers and frisbee throwers. Alas, we’ve put our thinking caps on and come up with some of London’s best picnic spots, and boy are they a bunch of beauties…
Brockwell Park
A picnic with a splash – not only is Brockwell Park a great picnic spot, Brockwell Lido is nestled in the corner with its 50m outdoor swimming pool, which is a perfect place to dive into when the British heat gets too much. Located between Brixton, Dulwich and Herne Hill, its acres are filled with an intense NMX track, playground, ornamental gardens and pond. You’ll always find something happening whether it’s a fair, circus or kids kicking the ball around on the sloping football pitches.
