Blackheath, Greater London

Flower Delivery to Blackheath with Clare Florist

Southeast of London lies a charming heathland that, contrary to urban legend, was never the site of mass graves for the fatalities of the Black Death. Rather, it pertains to the rich, dark topsoil that the valley is known for.

Entertainment

Tourism in the area is as vibrant as its people and as colorful as its past, and perhaps even made more beautiful with Blackheath flowers. Right at the heart is the railway station that branches out to the rest of the land, providing good access to hundreds of shops, restaurants, pubs and other exciting establishments.

For some gastronomic sojourn, the heath offers a wide range of restaurants where you can dine and enjoy quality meat dishes at very budget friendly prices. For starters, head out to Cau or Buenos Aires for their impressive Argentine steaks. And then pay a visit to Chapters for their AA rosette-awarded offerings. Speaking of rosettes, do not ever miss to send flowers to Blackheath addressed to your loved ones to make your holiday more memorable and romantic.

For a great drinking experience, try out the local pubs that offer village-like hospitality dating back to several decades or centuries ago. You might want to start with the Hare and Billett with its indulgent array of traditionally made lagers and ciders. The Princess of Wales, on the other hand, provides the most delectable roast in the area. If you are have a penchant for ale, the Zerodegrees is definitely a must try.

Green spaces in heath are vast and impressive, graced with not just grasses but also Blackheath flowers that make it a truly natural work of art. Here, you can do lots of things including kite flying, picnics, and some fancy sports like jogging and walking.

Of course, what is a vacation at a historic English town without experiencing the music? Let your senses be filled with the artistry of the musicians at O2 Arena where big names like U2 and Beyonce have graced the stage. Nearby the arena lie a strip of restaurants and entertainment spots for those pre- and after-concert gatherings. Meanwhile, classic music can be had at the Blackheath Halls.

Sightseeing

One of the top attractions at Blackheath is its Conservatoire of Music and the Arts and the Blackheath Halls, another conservatoire, that hold various artistic performances to the delight of both locals and tourists.

In terms of old school charm, the heath has plenty to boast. One of its idyllic landmarks is the Ranger's House, a red brick mansion Palladian styling, which has housed various masterpieces composing the Wernher Collection, and its lawns adorned by no less than the reputable flowers in Blackheath.

Since Blackheath is home to a number of affluent households in the 18th and 19th centuries, it is not a surprise to find lots of prominent Victorian and Georgian mansions in the area. Most of these antique houses are now open for tourists for sightseeing, while others for overnight accommodation.

If you should visit Blackheath in November, make sure not to miss the annual fireworks display and at the same time witness the Guy Fawkes Night. Another yearly event is the London Marathon participated by local and international runners.
