The ‘stunning’ park named best in London
Earning the number one spot on the list was Hyde Park, described as one of the “most iconic parks” in the capital.
Sharing why it earned the top spot, Barrett London said: “Located in central London, this stunning Royal Park offers visitors a beautiful retreat from the busy city with lake-side paths along the Serpentine as well as plentiful trees and luscious grass to relax on during sunny days.
“Hyde Park boasts a rich history, being established by Henry VIII in 1536 and opened to the public in 1637.
“Free-speech advocates may be inclined to visit Speakers’ Corner, which has been a pivotal destination for debate since 1872, hosting such disparate speakers, from Karl Marx to George Orwell.
