Abbey Wood, What a surprise! The site is in peaceful woodland and not far from from central London. There is public transport only a few minutes walk away and frequent bus and train services will take you almost anywhere you want to go. In a whole week we only used our car once and that was mainly to fill it with fuel! Choose your pitch carefully. Some are well under the trees and get no sun at all. However, the layout of the site means no pitch is too far from one or other of the shower blocks ( the third block is closed at some times of the year)

We mostly used the train to go into central London, it's far quicker than the bus, but we did use the bus to visit Greenwich and to go to the Red House at Bexley. We invested in an Oyster card before we went to use on the trains which has a daily cap of £9.50 from Abbey Wood.

Sainsburys is just a few minutes walk from the station so we often shopped each day on the way back to the van, seemed to work best as the weather was extremely hot, but we did go to the Asda at Belverdere about 3 miles away
