Mount Street, between Park Lane and Berkeley Square, is lined with late-Victorian buildings of pink terracotta, whose ground floors now hold luxury fashion and jewellery boutiques, galleries, Scott’s restaurant and The Connaught hotel. Behind it, Mount Street Gardens is a peaceful hidden garden with benches under plane trees. Bond Street and Green Park stations are within walking distance.
