Widow & widower dating in Barnet

Barnet is one of London's largest and greenest boroughs, stretching from Golders Green and Hendon in the south up through Finchley, Mill Hill and Totteridge to the historic market town of Chipping Barnet on the Hertfordshire border. It is a borough of leafy suburbs, village greens and open country — the Totteridge valley still feels genuinely rural — with established, settled communities throughout. For widows and widowers, Barnet offers both the convenience of good transport and the calm of real green space, a combination that makes rebuilding a social life feel far less daunting.

The Totteridge valley — and the view from the other side of grief

Oak Hill Park, the Dollis valley and first meetings

Barnet has an abundance of gentle places for a first meeting. Oak Hill Park in East Barnet and Victoria Park in Finchley are easy and well kept; the Dollis Valley Greenwalk and the Totteridge fields offer proper countryside walking within London. Stephens House Gardens (Avenue House) in Finchley has ornamental grounds and a cafe, while the RAF Museum at Colindale makes a memorable outing. Chipping Barnet's old high street, with the Spires and the Hadley Green open space nearby, is full of character, and the cafes of Finchley, Mill Hill and Barnet are comfortable for a first coffee.
