The Kyoto Garden in autumn, with orange, yellow and red maples around a rocky waterfall and pond, and a heron standing on the lawn

Wander Holland Park's woodland paths to the Kyoto Garden, a Japanese garden with a tiered waterfall, a koi pond, stone lanterns and maples.

Why it's a good date: It's one of the calmest corners of London, and the maples turn red and gold in autumn. Look out for the peacocks that wander the park.
