Last up we took a bus to Notting Hill to explore. I loved wandering through the beautiful apartment buildings and shopping on Portobello Road. For dinner we stopped in The Distillery for one last hurrah before heading back to the Airbnb to pack and check in for our flights out the next morning. I’m so grateful to have had a chance to travel with my mom and sisters (and Alex our last few days) and see so many lovely parts of England. We will be back!
Chelsea
After our breakfast we wandered around Chelsea and did some shopping! There were still some leftover installations from the Chelsea Flower Show at a lot of the shops (which Sophie and I sadly missed due to our delayed flight) but it was still fun to see! We also stumbled across a beautiful rose garden at a church, too. Here are my favorite few photos from our time in Chelsea:
Peggy Porschen Chelsea
Our last morning in London we headed to Chelsea for our brunch reservation at Peggy Porschen! We had all been looking forward to visiting (especially my mom) and the beautiful pink restaurant did not disappoint. Our advice: have everyone at the table order a different dessert!
Back to London
Day 8 began with an early morning trip to the train station to head back to London and meet Alex! After a quick croissant at a cafe across from the station, we got all our bags loaded on the train one final time and were on our way. Once arriving and checking into our Airbnb the five of us headed to The British Museum. After exploring the huge museum we walked around Covent Gardens, did some shopping, and had dinner before our tickets to Six! Having visited Henry VIII’s Hampton Court at the beginning of our trip, this was the perfect show to round out our time in the UK. It’s amazing and I highly recommend getting tickets, especially in London. After the show we headed to bed to rest up before our last day in London!
Bath, Somerset
After arriving in Bath and checking into our Airbnb we headed straight to our tour of the Roman Baths. Luckily, we had booked in advance and were able to make the last time slot of the day. On our walk from our Airbnb we also stopped into some great shops (I bought a silver frame and a cute miniature ceramic bunny mug). Once the tour ended we had dinner at a Greek restaurant before walking around town and admiring the views from the Pulteney Bridge. That night we watched the Queen’s Jubilee event at Buckingham Palace on TV before getting some sleep!
Roses & Roses & Roses
Our last morning in the Cotswolds was spent taking photos with ALL the roses near our cottage in Kingham. I’m so grateful we had a few days in the countryside to enjoy all the spring/early summer magic. Late morning it was time to say goodbye and we headed back to Cheltenham to drop off our rental car and boarded a train to our next stop: Bath!
