Get on the list for tickets and surprise someone who will appreciate the 'village of books' upstairs in particular.

There are many great parks in London to choose from, but Hampstead Heath is by far my favourite; a lido, Parliament Hill with a great view of the city, ponds, woods and plenty of space. It’s a great place to hang out in the summer, but also presents a lovely walk in the winter. Address: (As it’s so big obviously it doesn’t really have a specific address but there are 2 main entrances) Entrances by Gospel Oak or Hampstead Heath Entrance.

If you want to eat a good cake this is the place! They have so many cakes to choose from but the best one is the white chocolate cheesecake. 

An oasis of peace in London's frantic atmosphere.

A beautifully curated mix of plants from mature palms to microscopic succulents. It is impossible to leave empty-handed.
