Hyde Park & Diana Memorial Playground
London, United Kingdom
Review
The pirate-ship playground is a west-London rite of passage. Combine with a Serpentine splash, ice cream and a look at the Albert Memorial. Free, central, and easy with a buggy.
Our recommendation. The playground is for children 12 and under. Go at opening in the holidays.
