If today's weather is anything to go by, summer has finally arrived.

The sunny spells and blue skies have sent temperatures rocketing up to 25C today (Saturday, June 1).

What better to do on a balmy summer night than to head to the top of a roof garden and sip drinks by the sunset?

Rooftop bars are on-trend at the moment, and for good reason - you get to relax with a view of starry London in your sights.

So choose one of these fabulous bars in west London and enjoy the view... Just don't look down!
