English holiday courses: London Wimbledon, England
Let us not talk about the famous tournament that gathers tennis champions for a thrilling fight on its grass courts every year! Let’s rather mention the town, this so typically English, autonomous and undeniably charming town, located some 20 minutes away from the centre of London. The town centre, packed with fancy shops, the nice little red-brick houses with pitched roofs and this suburban English atmosphere are meaningful: here, people take time to live, they say “hello” and smile at every person they cross in the street. You might even hear the horse hooves clatter on the pavement – and then, you will discover the wide range of boutiques and restaurants with attractive menus. A big Buddhist temple is also part of this eclectic setting; the monastery spreads over half a hectare. A windmill museum tells the story of these machines on the English territory. You will discover the other traditional elements that shape England’s delightful countryside, the riding club, the golf and the surrounding parks. Wimbledon also offers outdoor concerts, theatre plays, exhibitions, pleasant walks along River Wandle, 460 hectares of meadows, forests and lakes – and of course, the yearly tennis tournament!
Besides, the traditional attractions of the British capital - the British museum, the Tate Modern, Windsor Castle, the London Eye - are only a few minutes away by public transport! You will have an opportunity to get immersed in the unique atmosphere of London, take time to breathe in the air of this fascinating and exhilarating city before going back to Wimbledon and keeping on enjoying your stay there.
