Kenwood House

Loads! Bring a ball or a kite, pack a picnic, go squirrel spotting or just let the kids run wild in the open space. There are woodland paths, hidden statues, and plenty of spots for hide-and-seek.

Teens will love snapping pics in front of the grand white façade of Kenwood House with it’s pure Bridgerton energy. The Orangery windows, mirror-filled rooms, and views over the lake and rolling hills are all big on wow-factor. Golden hour on Hampstead Heath? Yes please.

The view from the back lawn is a standout, especially the wide green slope down to the lake. You’ll spot dogs bounding about, kids rolling down hills, and families picnicking in every direction. It’s classic London with countryside vibes.

Yes, and it’s very family-friendly. Grab sandwiches, sausage rolls, cakes, and hot drinks. There’s seating inside and out, and it’s right next to the action, so you can refuel without missing a beat.

You’re spoilt for choice! You’re right on the edge of Hampstead Heath, so you can go for a woodland walk, climb up to Parliament Hill for amazing London views, or head to Hampstead Ponds if you’re up for a dip (teens love it in summer). Hampstead Village is also nearby, with indie cafés, crepes, and the odd celeb-spotting if you’re lucky.
