This site is well worth a visit, both in its own right and as a very useful base for Central London and all points south east. Pretty at any time of year (open all year round) it is particularly colourful with the changing colour of trees in the Autumn. Local facilities are enhanced by recent opening in 2015 of a large Sainsbury 10 / 15 minutes walk away (other side of the railway station). When Abbey Wood railway station eventually becomes the Eastern terminal of the Cross Rail line, it will be further enhanced making the City Centre even more rapidly accessible. It's a couple of years since we were last here but we noticed a SIGNIFICANT rise in the number of take offs and landings at London City Airport just over the river, and we found the aircraft noise more pronounced than in previous years. It took us around three days to become marginally accustomed to it, but in a week, we didn't become inured to it. It's always there - starting from around 05.00 hours.This is a bit of a downside and, we fear, will get worse before it gets better - if at all. Nothing you can do about it - but it does detract and reduces my scoring for 'Overall rating', 'Peace and Quiet' and 'Location' by one point each. That said, we both commented that there appeared to be fewer two tone emergency vehicle sirens in the vicinity during the hours of darkness. Can't explain that - but it was significant. Still WELL WORTH visiting and as well 'wardened' and cared for as ever.
