Ideal for a sunny day. And for a cold rainy day: "There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing".
The riverside garden of Twickenham's town hall, where Sir Ratan Tata's marble sea nymphs climb out of a pool, free.

The house dates from the 1630s, built for a courtier of Charles I, and passed through an Austrian ambassador, the sculptor Anne Seymour Damer and the Orleans pretender to the French throne, three of whose children were born in it, before Sir Ratan Tata of the Bombay industrial family bought it in 1906 and laid out the gardens that survive. He built the bridge over the road to the river lawn, the sunken garden behind the house and a Japanese garden, and in the riverside garden he set up the Naked Ladies: eight nymphs and a pair of horses in white Carrara marble, bought from the sale of a fraudster's estate and rising out of a cascade with their arms in the air. The council has had the house since the 1920s, and the gardens are locked at night and open to everyone by day.
