Romantic Getaways in London

If you are planning a couples getaway this year, you have some serious brownie points incoming. And what better way to make your loved one feel special by booking a romantic break in London, one of the best cities in the world (or maybe we’re just biased). With so much to do, it’s no surprise the capital welcomes an influx of visitors every year from all corners of the globe. But it’s also true that having so much choice in one city can sometimes feel overwhelming. That’s why deciding where to stay in London is an excellent way to get ahead of the game. 

Despite the allure of a hotel smack bang in the middle of Soho, it’s also worth considering the numerous benefits of a base a little further away from the action. Only a short train ride away from the numerous things to do in central London, Wimbledon is a charming part of the city that offers the perfect balance for your romantic weekend away. Not only is it the global home of tennis, you can ramble your way through the green wilds of Wimbledon Common or take a leisurely stroll around the quaint Wimbledon Village – you’ll feel a million miles from the madness! If you ever needed a good enough reason to venture outside of London’s zone 1, Wimbledon would be it.
