Secret Gardens and Outdoor Escapes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

London isn\u2019t all high-rise buildings and concrete\u2026 You may not realise but London is over 40% green space, which is a grand total of around 3000 parks! You may have visited some of the Royal Parks on your travels, but what about some of the lesser-known areas?\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At The Washington Mayfair, we love\u202fMount Street Gardens, a <\/strong>charming, quieter retreat where you can enjoy a tranquil moment in amongst the hustle and bustle of London, this time of year is perfect to admire the early spring flowers. Or for some history combined with fresh air,\u202fBerkeley Square Gardens <\/strong>is the perfect spot for a stroll. Berkley Square Gardens is a traditional London square surrounded by London Plane trees planted in 1789, which are among some of Mayfair\u2019s most oldest trees!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a chance to explore hidden gems, unique rooftop gardens, and historic walled enclosures, don\u2019t miss the London Open Gardens event.

Unusual Cultural Highlights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mayfair loves a gallery and while major galleries draw the crowds, opt for a visit to\u202fThe Gagosian or Halcyon Gallery.<\/strong> These two hidden gems showcase contemporary art in ever-changing exhibitions. The Halcyon Gallery<\/a> famously hosted an Andy Warhol exhibition in 2024 and is currently hosting a Bob Dylan retrospective exhibit.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mayfair\u2019s upscale reputation comes with a dining scene to match, and it doesn\u2019t disappoint. While the area is packed with high-end restaurants and fine dining spots, there are also plenty of hidden gems to discover. Our first hidden gem is tucked away off London\u2019s Berkley Square, The Cocochine<\/a> is an intimate eatery which celebrates art and craftsmanship with some of the very best seasonal produce from Sri-Lankan born chef Larry Jayasekara. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For our second gem, if you enjoy a hearty British Classic then you\u2019ll love The Mayfair Chippy<\/a>. Here you\u2019ll find fish and chips done right with dining on par with any fine dining experience. Awarded a 1AA Rosette, Michelin Guide Accreditation we love this quintessentially British restaurant.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
