A swim in the pond and a breath of fresh air
The path in to Hampstead Heath
This past weekend I trekked up Hampstead Heath with a friend and her baby. We were in search of clean(ish) air, a cool breeze and a dip in the pond legendary bathing ponds (this last item was just for us grown-ups, though — babies are not allowed in the pools).
Now, technically speaking, a trip to Hampstead Heath does not count as a micro-break (which I have defined as an escape from London), but I challenge anyone to delve into this particular part of N5 and not feel as though they are very, very far indeed from the London hustle.
