Shame. I didn't know this place before. After a long walk in the park, we decided to visit Pergola. Our luck was not being crowded, so we enjoyed a peaceful walk. The place is magnificent, with beautiful views and flowers to admire. You can spend time there on a Sunday with family as the park is on a side , and you find a zoo, a place to eat (located like 28 minutes away) walking through the park.
Definitely if you're in London, you should go! I am in love with this place.♥️

The best garden with the beat views!! Definitely going again. A good spot to take pictures and I would suggest to go mid summer because that’s when you can see the beauty of it and a good atmosphere.

Overview
Tucked away in the bustling city of London, The Hill Garden and Pergola is a serene and picturesque retreat located in Hampstead Heath. Originally commissioned by Lord Leverhulme in 1905, the pergola was designed by renowned architect Thomas Mawson as part of a grand Edwardian mansion. Though the mansion no longer stands, the pergola remains a breathtaking architectural masterpiece, intertwined with nature.

The garden and pergola exude a romantic charm, with vine-covered walkways, crumbling columns, and lush greenery. The structure's faded grandeur creates a dreamlike atmosphere, making it a favorite spot for photographers, couples, and anyone seeking a peaceful escape. Its elevated position provides stunning views of the surrounding area, adding to its allure.

Key Features

The Pergola: A long, shaded walkway adorned with climbing plants and flowers, creating an enchanting tunnel of greenery.
The Hill Garden: A landscaped garden with manicured lawns, seasonal blooms, and hidden nooks, perfect for quiet contemplation.
Tranquility: Despite being in a major city, the location is peaceful and rarely crowded, offering a refreshing break from urban life.
Wild Beauty: The semi-ruined state of the pergola adds a touch of mystery and history, blending perfectly with the natural surroundings.
Visitor Experience and Tips
The Hill Garden and Pergola is free to enter and open year-round, though the best times to visit are during spring and summer when the flowers are in full bloom. It’s a fantastic spot for a leisurely stroll, a quiet read, or even a romantic picnic. Photographers will love the interplay of light, shadow, and textures, making it an ideal location for portrait and nature photography.

For those planning to visit:

The nearest tube station is Golders Green (Northern Line), from where it’s about a 20-minute walk.
Wear comfortable shoes, as the garden has some uneven paths and stairs.
Be mindful of the weather; the pergola is partly exposed, so it’s best to visit on a dry day.

One of my favorite parks in London (I know, that’s bold). It just has so much soul and different scenery. Feels like I’m trespassing some dukes land 100 years ago.

This place is absolutely breathtaking, especially during spring and summer! Even when the chill of winter sets in, there's something magical about being here. It’s a remarkable experience no matter the season!
