Regent’s Park Marylebone

To the north of Marylebone lies Regent Park, one of London’s many royal parks well-known for its landscape design, much of which has remained the same in its long existence numbering over 150 years. The park has survived bombings during World War II, served as an entertainment venue for visiting dignitaries in the past, and was even briefly converted to a hunting chase by King Henry VIII in 1538.

While Regent’s Park’s illustrious heritage is of interest to anyone seeking to rent in Marylebone, the character of Regent’s Park’s area is of greater concern to future residents. Here is a look at some of the perks of living in proximity to this iconic landmark.

For starters, Regent’s Park is Central London’s largest grass area for sports activities, and includes facilities such as tennis courts; cricket pitches; softball, rugby and football pitches; a running track; and a trim trail. The site conducts exercise classes for all ages and fitness levels. Locals can also be seen enjoying the park’s lake in boats and bikes rented at the on-site rental hire.
