Ben Baker
Born in New Zealand in 1990, Ben started playing the violin at three years old. Four years later, Nigel Kennedy recommended he joined The Yehudi Menuhin School in London – he was granted a scholarship and begun training.
Ben’s concerto debut was at 12 years old in Istanbul playing with the Romanian State Orchestra at the Mozart Festival. At the age of 15 he released his first solo CD, ‘Arcadian Strings’, which won the Classic FM Next Big Thing Award. He is currently studying on a full scholarship at the Royal College of Music with Natasha Boyarsky. He has just released his second CD ‘Ben Baker Live at The Menuhin Hall’ and won 1st Prize in the Royal Over-Seas League Competition.
Petr Limonov
Petr was born in 1984 in Moscow and started playing the piano at the age of 5. In 1991 he entered the Central Music School, studying under Siyavush Gadjiev, Valery Pyasetsky and Andrei Pisarev. In 2003 Petr was awarded a full international scholarship by the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music, which allowed him to continue his studies in the Royal Academy of Music (London) under professor Hamish Milne and visiting professor Alexander Satz. In 2010 Petr returned to London to start his Masters program in the Royal College of Music under Dimitri Alexeev on a full scholarship. His repertoire stretches from Orlando Gibbons to Elliott Carter.

Andrew Beale
Managing Director
As the third generation of the Beale family to work here, and the eighth generation of the family business, I am proud to say that not only do we have a wonderful sense of history, but an equally important sense of the quality service demanded by today’s guests.
Our motto is ‘Generations of Excellence since 1769’, reflecting not only the long history of the company, but also the long service of many of our staff and the loyalty of our guests, many of whom have been coming as families over three or more generations to West Lodge Park.
We have been recently awarded the highest rating by the AA of any 4 star hotel in North London and Hertfordshire.
I trust you will be tempted enough by this website to pay us a visit. Have a look at the three minute video (above) to get a good impression of this wonderful hotel.
