Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

Beckenham is centred on an old village high street so all facilities are within 10 minutes walking distance of our house - restaurants, bars, cinema, churches, public indoor swimming pool, parks and gardens. Also railway station, where trains take 20/25 minutes to reach Victoria station in central London which provides ready access to all the tourist sites of London. Our house is also right opposite Kelsey Park, which is regarded as one of the most attractive in South London. Manor Way is often described by estate agents as Beckenham's premier road, because of the quality of the properties and its convenient and attractive location.
