Cool lake hidden off busy thoroughfare. Inside a disused water pumping station is the canoeing and sailing club, with plenty of opportunities for children and adults to learn watersports. Of course there are no big waves or beaches, but as an introduction to canoeing and sailing before hitting the high seas it is a perfect spot. There is also a small cafe you can sit in to watch the boats.

There are two Rasas here, just about opposite to one another, one vegetarian one not. I have but been to the vegetarian one, and will always go back. The food is quite simply incredible. Everything is much more exciting than the usual Indian fare. Instead of poppadoms, there are strange curly, crispy things that look like dried starfish but are just perfect savoury biscuit-like things for dipping in special dips. There is an amazingly strange but wonderful mango main course, a variety of rices, and every dish is differently delightful.It is also extremely affordable - there are other Rasas closer to central London (one on Charlotte Street and one near Bond Street, and one strangely in a hotel off Kings Cross Road) but they are more expensive and not exclusively vegetarian either. It is just perfect here. And pink.

This place is incredible and a good substitute for going to the pub. It is a disused waterworks that looks like a castle, by the resevoir and boating clubs. Inside the walls are studded with climbing routes, from beginners’ bouldering to expert scaling heights. There are introductory courses and different advanced courses in techniques. You need to show that you have the basic knowledge and safety skills before you can become a member; otherwise you need a member to accompany you. There is always great music playing and a comfy sofa to lounge upon if you need a rest. The cafe has wonderful toasties and cakes and teas and you can sit in awe watching the more experienced climbers hanging from the ceiling. Outside is a hammock, where those less energetically inclined relax and smoke.
