Kew Area Guide

A leafy and well cared for suburb

Excellent trains to London and village atmosphere

On the south side of the river Thames, in between Richmond and Barnes, is Kew. It’s one of the most popular places to live in South West London due to its excellent transport links, village feel and close proximity to the Royal Botanic Gardens. Kew Village next to Kew Green is the go to destination for its shops, pubs, restaurants and cafés. Families love its fine Victorian and Edwardian houses. Overground trains go to Waterloo via Richmond in around 28 minutes. Direct trains run from Kew Bridge on the other side of the river taking 32 minutes to Waterloo.

Did you know?

Kew is seven miles south-west of central and has an historic village cricket green. The Kew Midsummer Fete is held each year in June on Kew Green and features the famous Dog Show and Tug of War Contest. Kew Gardens has over 50,000 living plants across our UNESCO World Heritage site.
