Gardens in London

Home / Gardens in London

Find a Garden to visit in London near to you!

London is home to some very well known gardens such as Kew Gardens, Kenwood House, Hampton Court Gardens and of course areas such as Hyde Park and Richmond Park.

But what about other gardens which you may not have heard of?

How about the Chelsea Physic Garden, the Onion Garden or community led King Henrys Walk? Or what about the Japanese Garden of Peace?

I like the more local garden like my old neighbourhood Fulham Palace Garden or Fenton House & Garden in Hampstead.

The Onion Garden - path — The Onion Garden & Cafe, Westminster

The Onion Garden, Westminster, London

Google Review Rating – 4.9 – Please note this location is now closed and looking for a new home!
The Onion Garden & Cafe is such a brilliant idea and it really should be replicated elsewhere!

Essentially it is a complete Container Garden built on top of Tube Lines District and Circle Lines only 10 minutes walk from Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey and Parliament.

Grab a coffee, pastry or light lunch, check out the plants, and chill out. Very, unexpectedly amazing! More Details here
