In London there is a temperate climate all year round. The weather can often be unpredictable, so make sure to pack your umbrella, waterproof jacket, t-shirts and flip-flops - you will use them all! The average temperature within the summer months is around the mid 20C's, ideal weather for enjoying the beautiful Royal Parks that are scattered throughout the centre of London. In winter the temperature normally drops to about 5C, so although we don't often have freezing conditions, you might want to warm up over a cup of hot chocolate in the many street cafes or by enjoying a drink by a roaring fire in a traditional English pub.
