Holland Park – The Park

Holland Park is about 22 hectares (54 acres) in area ^[1] and is considered one of the most romantic and peaceful parks of West London. The park contains a famous Orangery, a giant chess set, a cricket pitch, tennis courts, a Japanese garden, a youth hostel, one of London’s best equipped children’s playgrounds, squirrels and (impressively for a London park) peacocks. Today the remains of the house form a backdrop for the open air Holland Park Theatre, which is the home of Opera Holland Park.
