Somerset House
Somerset House is home to so much it’s hard to know where to start! Twice a hear it is the main hub for Fashion Week, once a year it transforms into a huge outdoor ice rink and the rest of the time it holds events, talks, gigs, exhibitions and more.
The actual Somerset House is a reason to visit in itself through a huge gated archway the neo-classical building sits buzzing with activity, right in the heart of London between the Strand and the River Thames.
Often there are free guided tours of spaces within the house usually hidden to visitors.
