Set against the spectacular backdrop of Hampton Court Palace, a spin at this London ice rink makes for an unforgettable winter experience.
Ice Skating at Hampton Court Palace
For a thoroughly regal ice-skating experience this winter, head to Hampton Court Palace ice rink.
Offering a great view of the palace's spectacular Tudor façade, the ice rink beats skating round an indoor rink any day!
You can book an ice guide to escort you around the rink if you're not quite ready to brave it alone. There's also a six-week ice skating course available for children aged 5-16.
History and Hampton Court Palace
Hampton Court Palace has a fascinating history and was once home to England's most famous (and infamous!) King, Henry VIII. With 2009 marking the 500th anniversary of Henry VIII's ascension to the throne, there have been lots of Tudor-themed celebrations here.
Besides skating, there's plenty to see at the Hampton Court Palace, including Henry VIII's State Apartments, the vast Tudor Kitchens and the topiary Maze.
Just remember to watch out for the ghosts that still haunt the palace's halls and grounds!
