The Milestone Hotel introduces the Chelsea Flower Show Experience package

The five-star Milestone Hotel in Kensington is offering guests the chance to celebrate the nearby RHS Chelsea Flower Show with a special package for budding florists.

Guests can seek inspiration with entrance in to the world’s most famous and glamorous flower show, then take part in two special masterclasses at The Milestone that will have them following in the footsteps of the show’s horticulture experts.
One of London’s leading floral arrangers Pascal Lavorel will lead a one hour masterclass in how to design and make a hand tied bouquet, for guests to keep or give to a loved one.  In addition, The Milestone’s Executive Chef Ryan O’Flynn, who is passionate about using only the finest seasonal ingredients and sustainable produce, will demonstrate how to make a picture perfect and delicious seasonal salad, complete with edible flowers, roasted beets and a white balsamic dressing.

As part of this special Chelsea Flower Show package, guests can also enjoy a champagne afternoon tea in The Milestone’s beautiful conservatory and for garden lovers wanting to enjoy more of London’s green spaces, Kensington Palace and Gardens are just across the road.
