    BRITISH MILITARY FITNESS AT THE CAVENDISH HOTEL The Cavendish Hotel is offering its guests the most effective, unique and environmentally friendly workout possible. The hotel has teamed up with British Military Fitness (BMF) to give visitors access to complimentary fitness sessions to help them keep fit in the great outdoors. The hotel, which has a keen emphasis on reducing its impact on the environment and was awarded “Considerate Hotel of the Year 2007”, is offering its guests an alternative workout to the normal hotel gym. Residents of the hotel are invited to attend these rigorous BMF sessions with the hotel’s compliments. The BMF classes are run by serving or ex-armed forces physical training instructors with recognised fitness training qualifications. They offer motivational and challenging workouts to encourage attendees to get fit in a fun and interactive environment. The classes take place in the beautiful parks of London and are a great opportunity to take in the scenery London has to offer. Making use of the great outdoors and using no equipment, apart from what nature provides, means these workouts are the lowest carbon footprint form of exercise you can do. The classes are designed to suit guests of all fitness and the groups are divided into three levels; beginners, intermediates and advanced, so whatever the level of ability there is something for every hotel guest. Hyde Park is the local BMF venue to The Cavendish and offers sessions everyday except Tuesday at several times in the morning and the evening. Other classes take place in Clapham Common, Hampstead Heath, Richmond Park, Wimbledon Common, Battersea Park and Wandsworth Common and guests of the hotel will be able to attend any session in London.

  • Battersea Area Guide
    Battersea Area Guide Living in Battersea and Nine Elms Battersea is in the London Borough of Wandsworth and stands on the south bank of the River Thames, spanning from Fairfield in the west to Queenstown in the east. The area is conveniently located just 3 miles from Charing Cross and easily accessible from most parts of Central London. The skyline is dominated by Battersea Power Station and its four distinctive chimneys, visible from both land and water, making it one of London’s most famous landmarks. Battersea’s most famous attractions have been here for more than a century. The legendary Battersea Dogs and Cats Home still finds new families for abandoned pets, and Battersea Park, which opened in 1858, guarantees a wonderful day out. Today Battersea is a relatively affluent neighbourhood with wine bars and many independent and unique shops - Northcote Road once being voted London’s second favourite shopping street. The SW11 Literary Festival showcases the best of Battersea’s literary talents and the famous New Covent Garden Market keeps many of London’s restaurants supplied with fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers. Nine Elms is Europe’s largest regeneration zone and, according the mayor of London, the ‘most important urban renewal programme’ to date. Three and half times larger than the Canary Wharf finance district, the future of Nine Elms, once a rundown industrial district, is exciting with two new underground stations planned for completion by 2020 linking up with the northern line at Vauxhall and providing excellent transport links to the City, Central London and the West End.
