Take a stroll in the manicured environs of Dulwich Park, with its beautifully tended flower beds, boating lake and rentable reclining bicycles and just avert your eyes from the estate agents as you crunch up the gravelled pathways towards an inviting stretch of restaurants and shops, with the quintessential village pub, the Crown & Greyhound, in the centre. It's best to eschew the chain eateries for the gorgeous Italian deli and take a bag full of picnic supplies back to the park but I have to admit enjoying a big glass of white wine and a Pizza Express pizza outside on a sunny day in Dulwich Village is pretty great too. Then it's back to reality with a bump!

The surrounding area is really lovely, so if you need to visit this place, it's worthwhile taking a walk around (e.g. to the nearby Kensington Palace) I have never encountered a member of staff who wasn't anything but very nice, and they always seem to handle all business quite promptly. If you get a chance to visit any of the embassy's cultural events, definitely do so - there is a nice and very green atrium area to sit down at, excellent Czech Pilsner Urquell beer on tap (poured just the way it's supposed to be), and sometimes also good traditional hearty Czech dishes on offer. On such evenings, the embassy becomes a lovely oasis connecting Czech, Slovak, and English culture.
