Discover Bushy Park, London's wilder Royal Park near Hampton Court Palace. Walk the mile-long Chestnut Avenue, spot free-roaming deer grazing among woodland and ponds, and pause at the Diana Fountain.
Reasons to go
Full description
Bushy Park sits just north of Hampton Court Palace and has kept a wilder, more rural feel than the central London parks, with deer grazing openly among its woodland and ponds. The Chestnut Avenue, planted in the 17th century and lined with horse chestnuts, is a spectacular sight when it blossoms in spring.
It's popular with cyclists, runners, and dog walkers, and its scale means it rarely feels crowded even though it draws a steady stream of visitors.
