If you’ve exhausted all the many historical attractions near your London serviced apartment, then you might be looking for something a little more exotic further out of the way. Luckily, due to some fantastic transport connections, there’s a whole wealth of exquisite destinations of historical grandeur to enjoy within an hour’s journey of your London serviced apartments. The perfect day trip for your short stay in Mayfair.
Leeds Castle (In Kent)
Don’t worry, they haven’t suddenly moved Leeds into the Home Counties – the similarity between this castle’s name and an English city very much not within an hour of your London serviced apartment is little more than a coincidence. Once you get over the name, you’ll find yourself in the midst of ‘the loveliest castle in the world;’ a gorgeous Tudor style building surrounded by water on its own little island.
The castle is located a short journey from Bearsted train station, which can be reached by train from London Charing Cross and London Victoria.
Hever Castle & Gardens
Kent is famous for its wonderful historic monuments, and here’s another. Hever Castle & Gardens is a short train ride away from London Bridge Station, and features some of the finest rural beauty that the Home Counties have to offer.
Windsor Castle & Riverside
The famous royal residence Windsor that shares its name with the royal family is also a popular tourist attraction that’s often open to the public. Located in the picturesque county of Berkshire, the town of Windsor is a fantastic day out all round, from the castle all the way through the scenic town centre and across the banks of the River Thames.
Windsor can be accessed by trains from either London Paddington Station or London Waterloo.
