Why not picnic in one of London’s sun kissed parks this Spring time? London’s very own Harvey Nichols and Harrods both offer gorgeous picnic hampers to enjoy featuring quaint crackers, creamy cheeses and tangy marmalades, to name just few. If you’re feeling adventurous why not visit Whole Foods market on Kensington High Street to make up a hamper of your own and then mosey on over to the beautiful Kensington Gardens? Kensington Gardens shares its home with Hyde Park separated only by the Serpentine Lake. If the children behave themselves why not treat them to a ride on a pedal boat after your scrumptious picnic treats? The gardens also pay tribute to the Princess Diana of Wales with a memorial playground featuring an impressive wooden pirate ship for the kids to enjoy. A bronze statue of Peter Pan also sits by the lake inspiring kids to ‘never grow up’ and stay young at heart.

In Harvey Nichols' fifth floor bar, a touch of the Alpes was brought to Knightsbridge. With all the style of a fancy ski resort with a log cabin feel and vodka cocktails, the Elit Freeze brings you the après ski without having to climb a mountain. Instead, it's luxury all the way with snug blanckets, faux sheepskin rugs and fane deer head trophies. Elit, the sponsor of the event, is part of the Stolichnaya vodka brand, who are launching two new flavours at the pop-up. Stoli Hot and Stoli Sticki will be available to try, as well as vodka ice pops, and a whole range of exciting cocktails, such as the Stoli Jalabarbinger - a mix of Stoli hot, rhubarb and ginger. Tapas dishes are also available specifically designed to match the cocktails and include the likes of hot tiger prawns, lamb kafta and jalapeno poppers. The bar will be open until New Year's Eve. Booking is advised. For more info go here .  Recommended by Cheval Residences - Luxury Serviced Apartment...
