Holiday rentals in Wembley

The northwest London suburb of Wembley is a hub of global entertainment, hosting lots of sporting and cultural events throughout the year. The iconic Wembley Stadium and Arena draw visitors from around the world to enjoy major football matches, music concerts, and other artistic happenings.

Wembley’s thriving diverse cultural scene is palpable at every turn. The boulevards in Wembley Park serve as an extensive free public art gallery, with vibrant murals, interactive artworks, and digital mixed media along the meandering Art Trail. Wembley Park is a go-to spot for designer shopping, boutiques, outlets, and dining. The area’s food scene is brimming with international cuisine, street food, cafes, and bars. Wembley’s prime location also makes it a great starting point for exploring the rest of London.

Summers in Wembley are warm, with only a handful of rainy days, making this an excellent time to visit. London’s weather can be changeable, though, so it’s a good idea to always pack an umbrella and an extra layer. Five miles away, Notting Hill hosts its world-famous Caribbean carnival every August Bank Holiday weekend, with colourful floats, street food, and elaborately costumed performers dancing in the streets to steel drums and calypso music.

Autumn and winter bring cooler weather and more rain, and the temperature can dip below freezing. During the holiday season, Wembley Park hosts Winterfest, featuring a winter lights trail, a giant walk-through Christmas tree made of 100,000 LED lights, and art and light installations. Flowers bloom in the gardens along the streets in spring, and the warming temperatures make this a very pleasant time to stay.

Osterley Park

Explore the magnificent interior of this Georgian country estate, which includes an extravagant entrance hall and a series of neoclassical rooms with intricate decorations, friezes, and furniture. Six acres of lush floral gardens, parks, and verdant farmland surround the mansion, including a winter garden with colourful perennials and shrubs.

The BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir

The highly visible architectural gem of BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, commonly known as Neasden Temple, is a traditional-style Hindu temple constructed entirely from marble, granite, and limestone. Its seven turrets contain elaborate shrines to Hindu deities, carved in teak and oak. You can explore the temple from the inside, so long as you dress modestly — with shoulders and knees covered — and take off your shoes upon entering.

Northala Fields

Northala Fields is a dynamic eco-park featuring four towering artificial funnel-shaped mounds, including one with a distinctive spiral path. The mounds were designed as biodiverse environments for local wildlife, including butterflies and dragonflies. The park encompasses six interconnected fishing lakes linked by fully accessible walking trails and a marsh reserve as well as playgrounds and open fields for playing sports or relaxing, shielded from the surrounding city noise.
