Hands down: my favourite park in London. A large and ancient park with over 320 hectares of greenery with beautiful ponds and woodlands. You genuinely feel like you could be walking in the countryside. When the weather is hot, there are swimming ponds perfect for taking a dip. And it is so easy to get via the overground line, only 15 minutes from Kensal Rise to Hampstead Heath.
