With a cricket pitch, tennis courts, BMX track, table tennis and play areas it\u2019s a great location on a sunny afternoon for all the family. Also located very close to Broadway Market if you\u2019re running low on burgers and sausages.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE\u00a0<\/strong><strong>NEW FOREST NATIONAL PARK, HAMPSHIRE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The New Forest National Park is a beautiful historic hunting ground spanning over 220 square miles. It is also a fantastic spot to have a BBQ as the park authorities have a set up a number of designated outdoor cooking areas. Enjoy a freshly barbecued burger among the vast ancient woodlands and wildlife.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BRIGHTON BEACH, SUSSEX<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Brighton is many people\u2019s favourite seaside town and is packed full of top class restaurants, bars, shops and tourist attractions.

In fact the views from the surrounding hills and woodlands around Derwentwater near Keswick are probably some of the most beautiful scenes to be glimpsed in the UK. Just as well then that you needn\u2019t stray too far from the natural wonders to have something to eat. Many of the car parks around Derwentwater have BBQ facilities and are only a short walk from the waterfront.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HIGHBURY FIELDS, LONDON<\/strong><\/p><div class=\"3a64bb57635b757d04b12bcf0c14b9a3\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-9477973674766713\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8885944693\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>The council of Islington lifted its ban on outdoor cooking in 2012 and has since become a barbecue-loving borough. Recognising that most of their residences do not have gardens, Islington Council declared that as long as people cook responsibly and clean up after themselves they will continue to allow barbecuing in their parks. As a result Highbury Fields has become a hotspot for London\u2019s outdoor cooking enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tripatlas.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/hf-view-3.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1116491\" src=\"https:\/\/tripatlas.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/hf-view-3.jpg\" alt=\"hf-view-3\" width=\"780\" height=\"238\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>BAMBURGH, NORTHUMBERLAND<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bamburgh\u2019s beach has two stunning views: one, out to sea, looking at the world famous Farne Islands (Britain\u2019s most prominent seabird sanctuary and David Attenborough\u2019s favourite nature resort in the UK) and the other, back inland, looking up at the sublime sight of Bamburgh Castle.\u00a0 The beach is a great place to have a barbecue and watch the sunset over vast stretches of magnificent sand dunes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE CAIRNGORMS NATIONAL PARK<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s very difficult to only select one spot in the Highlands for a great free open space for BBQ but <a href=\"https:\/\/cairngorms.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cairngorms National Park<\/a> with its rivers, glens, lochs, moors, farmland, forests and the UK\u2019s highest and largest mountain range, truly is one of the most diverse and enchanting landscapes that we have.
