Drinks & Nightlife

Nice cosy pub in the middle of Putney Heath, 10 minute walking distance from the house! It calls itself "a country pub in London". It does food as well.

Food Scene

Nearby pub and restaurant, originating from 17th century (although little remains of the original interior!). Nicely prepared and presented meals. Not cheap but not overly expensive (a main meal is about £12-14).

Parks & Nature

There is an entrance to this park from Priory Lane (10-15 minute walk). A massive park that used to be the hunting grounds of Henry VIII...there are herds of wild deer roaming freely in the park that are the descendants of the deer the king used to hunt! Beautiful old oak trees of around 500 years old still stand, some with big hollows in their trunks. There is also a lake and various cafes in the park.
