History Architecture

Booked a hotel near London Heathrow and feeling rather regal? Be sure to view the exhibits held in Windsor Castle, the largest and oldest occupied castle in the world, proudly displaying its collection of Royal art amongst outstanding architecture. For the adventurous we recommend visiting Hampton Court and getting lost in its famous maze, before spoiling yourself rotten in The Chocolate Kitchen, recently opened again after 300 years.

Parks

With London Heathrow being surrounded by over 200 green spaces on the border of the English countryside, you’ll be spoilt for choice where to spend a relaxing recreational afternoon.  We love a walk through Richmond Park, the largest royal park in London. Containing listed Georgian mansion Pembroke Lodge serving tea and light bites for lunch, it also holds the Isabella plantation, full of exotic plants while herds of Red and Fallow deer roam free.
