Holland Park London

Tranquil and relaxing Holland Park is conveniently situated near Kensington High Street and offers both active and passive retreat. Park facilities are extensive with dedicated children play areas, sport facilities, tennis courts, football pitch, netball court, cricket nets and golf bunker. Holland Park also has a cosy cafe and a restaurant house in the former Ballroom, built in the mid 1800's that today overlooks beautifully preserved greenery and wildlife. Orangery that often hosts art exhibitions is equally liked by those who come to visit this unique park, where fast squirrels and friendly peacocks provide the best entertainment.

The story of Holland Park dates to early 17th century, when the ground and mansion were inherited by the wife of Sir Henry, who was the Earl of Holland. Today the park has been exploited to the full, presenting a range of activities in the summertime. Opera Holland Park is one those unique events that the park is now associated with. Open-air theatre productions as well as classic concerts also prove to be much appreciated.

Some of the park highlights include beautifully preserved and maintained rose garden and Japanese garden. Other spaces are also green and fresh with many enjoyable tree-lined walks. The main entrance is next to the Commonwealth Experience off High Street Kensington.
