Leith Hill in Surrey
Being the highest point in South East England, Leith Hill is guaranteed to offer
quality hiking with fantastic views. Climbing the ancient Tower is an experience that will not
be easily forgotten and that will reward you with a 360° view of some prime countryside. There
are also miles of unforgettably pleasant country walks.
∴ Battersea Park in London
Virtually nobody knows about Battersea Park and yet it's probably London's most
romantic and peaceful place, along with Holland Park in Kensington. On the banks of the River
Thames, Battersea Park even houses a children's zoo.

Croydon Airport
The world's very first international airport, the world's first to adopt air
traffic control, the world's busiest airport at the time and the world's first to have a
purpose built air terminal. Croydon Airport has now been forgotten and it lays almost
unnoticed. Guided visits are available by retired people that were involved in its
operations.

Hot Air Balloon Flight in England
There is little more romantic and exciting at the same time, than hanging up among
the clouds in total silence and with a breathtaking view over the English countryside. Flights
are available all over the country and they start at about £70. It is a rare treat not to be
missed and an unforgettable experience.

Churchill Arms Pub in London
A fabulous example of a traditional English pub. The Churchill Arms has a totally
unique character that makes this place a must for anyone, including the locals. The otherwise
anonymous building is decorate with hundreds of flowers of all colours; in Christmas time they
manage to decorate the outside with tens of lit up Christmas trees. The inside is another
experience altogether, with hundreds of historic objects hanging from the ceiling. Other than
having a great variety of beer, they also have one of London's first Thai restaurants,
incorporating the very nature of this cosmopolitan capital that never ends leaving people
surprised. The reviews say they serve quite good food and the senses are surely awakened at
lunch and dinner time. Portions are abundant and prices are fair.
