Best Zoo in Chesham Bois

"Opened in 1828, London Zoo is among the oldest in the world. The emphasis nowadays is firmly on conservation, breeding and education, with fewer animals and bigger enclosures. Highlights include Land of the Lions, Gorilla Kingdom, Tiger Territory, the walk-through In with the Lemurs and Penguin Beach. There are regular feeding sessions and talks, various experiences are available, such as Keeper for a Day, and you can even spend the night in the Gir Lion Lodge."

"Located in Regent’s Park is ZSL London Zoo, the world’s oldest scientific zoo. It opened in 1828, the brainchild of Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, who was also the founder of Singapore. It’s one of the most popular things to do with kids in London, home to plenty of cool creatures."

"The world's first scientific zoo contains 12 listed buildings, 12,000 animals & 650 species. Regent's Park Outer Circle, Primrose Hill, London, NW1 4RY. Tube: Chalk Farm Station"

"Situated in North London, Highgate Wood is one of the four ancient woods of the London Borough of Haringey (together with Queen’s Wood, Coldfall Wood and Bluebell Wood). Containing an impressive variety of trees and shrub species, the Highgate Wood is the home for many foxes, grey squirrels, as well as multiple species of birds, bats, butterflies and spiders. Besides the fact that it was included among the eight Green Heritage Sites in London, Highgate Wood also attracts visitors with its recreational facilities like children playgrounds, cafés, walking trails and sporting fields."

"Specialising particularly in rich, meat and cheese-led dishes from Northern Italy, Mele e Pere in Soho pleases with a mix of boldly-flavoured salads, small antipasti-style plates and indulgent pastas that make frequent and liberal use of truffles, parmesan and butter. We'll admit to finding the chili-stuffed deep-fried olives addictive on a Class A scale, and the strong, slow-cooked flavours of a beef ragu aren't far off. Propping up the bar is a great way to sample a few of the smaller dishes, and from 4-7pm every weekday is 'aperitivo hour' meaning 50% off drinks with any food order."

"Little Duck At Home sounds like the nourishing Pixar film we could all do with watching (and gently sobbing to) right now, but it’s actually Little Duck The Picklery’s new Thursday to Sunday collection service. It ranges from a ‘Beirut Breakfast’ with flatbread, labneh, pistachio dukka and honey, to chicken, asparagus, and wild garlic pies."
