Located south of the River Thames, Bromley is one of the boroughs which make up Grater London. If you are looking for a new property to rent, Bromley is definitely worth considering. It is less than an hour drive from the capital’s centre, which makes it an attractive place to live in. If you decide to move there you will benefit from easy-access transport links, without the craziness of the city.
David James Lettings experts have shortlisted for you some places to visit and things to do in the Bromley area.
1. Visit Walnuts Leisure Centre for Roller Discos & More
Thinking about what you could do on a Friday evening? How about heading to The Walnuts Leisure Centre to take part in the big roller disco? The venue can accommodate over 200 skaters, so it is definitely something worth seeing. If you fancy more “traditional” way of dancing though, then rest assured that there is a number of clubs and bars, as well.
2. See a Show at the Churchill Theatre
If you decide to spend some time on cultural events, then one of your best choices would be to visit the Churchill Theatre located in the heart of the High Street. The theatre is a host of both touring productions from across the UK, as well as world-renowned West End shows.
3. See Dinosaurs at Crystal Palace Park
A good day out would be to visit the Crystal Palace Park. Part of the English Heritage Grade II, the park was once a home to Sir Joseph Paxton’s Crystal Palace. It is open every day from 7.30 and the closing times are seasonal. One of the main highlights of the park are the prehistoric monsters (dinosaurs). There are also dedicated areas for children, such as the Capel Manor Colleage and Children’s Farm, as well as the Children’s play area.
4. Explore Chislehurst Caves
Another choice for the more adventurous of you would be the Chislehurst Caves. Grab a lantern and get ready to travel back in time with stories about Druids, Romans and Saxons. See the Haunted Pool, Druid Altar and a lot more.
5. Discover Real Ales at the Local Beer Festival
In addition to that, you might be surprised to know that Bromley will also host a beer festival this year! It will take place on 25th and 26th October when people will be marking the end of British Summer time which occurs that weekend. The festival will be held at the Westcombe Park Rugby Club in Chelsfield. There will be a lot of music, food and of course, beer!
When it comes to sports and activities, Bromley won’t disappoint. From golf courses and bowling lanes to paintball sites, you can be sure that you won’t be out of things to do. Roller skating and climbing walls are only a few of the things to do, if you are up for some fast paced or extreme activities.
