Things to check out around Twickenham Stadium?

Twickenham Stadium is a venue in or near London that is most often used for Rugby Union

Unfortunately Twickenhams stadium tour is shut on match days, but if you are spending a few days in the area, then it is definitely something that you should check out. Tickets start from £20 per adult and £12 per child. The tour takes you all over the stadium, from the home dressing room to the royal box, the VIP areas to experiencing life as a player - running down the tunnel to pitch side.The World Rugby Museum is open on matchdays to ticket holders however, opening when the Stadium doors do and closing around an hour after the final whistle. The Museum is full of touch screens and videos that shows the sports gaining popularity from its earliest days. The star piece is the Calcutta Cup - the trophy that England and Scotland play each other for every year!

Something that sets Twickenham apart from other sports venues is the gorgeous setting in which the stadium sits, like Richmond Park. There are deer and other wildlife, gorgeous scenery and even the hunting grounds of Henry VIII. All of this can be enjoyed on a Merry Pedaller bike tour with company owner Ginette. There's even a 'beer and bike tour' if you're feeling a little more adventurous. Truly a great day out, and a fantastic way to pass a few hours in Twickenham.
