The period between Christmas and New Year (known in Norway as Romjul) can be a strange time of eating lots of leftovers, watching terrible television and getting cross with your family. Fear not, you have our permission to escape from the TV and smartphone screen and explore Mayfair. Here are some sneaky suggestions to get you out of the house during Romjul 2017…

– Visit the Royal Academy of Arts
The Dali/Duchamp exhibition closes on 3rd January, which is a great excuse to escape the house and fight the post-Christmas blues.

– Go for a walk in Hyde Park
There’s nothing better than walking round central London at Christmas when the streets are quiet. If you need some fresh air (and exercise!) head out to Hyde Park for a wintry stroll.

– Have a pint at The Running Horse
Sneak along to one of Mayfair’s cosiest pubs and enjoy a quiet drink in the corner.
