Travelling by car

Kew Gardens is well signposted from all the major local roads. The South Circular (A205) passes the north-east corner of Kew Gardens and Kew Road (A307) forms the eastern border.

If coming from the west on the M4 (leave at Junction 2) or A4 take the A205 to the right (at the major Chiswick roundabout (A4 / A406 / A205 ) and follow the A205 across the River Thames at Kew Bridge.

If coming from the North Circular or from London on the A4 take the A205 southwards at the same roundabout.

Immediately over the bridge on your right is Kew Green, further along on the road on your left at the junction you will see the Coach & Horses, turn right at this junction for Cambridge Cottage


Coming from the south or west on the A316 or M3 motorway (which becomes the A316) turn left at the Richmond roundabout onto Kew Road (A307). Follow Kew Road passing the Victoria gate entrance to Kew Gardens until you reach a set of traffic lights at the junction with the A205 in Kew town centre. Follow the road to the left and at the next junction the entrance to Kew Green will be immediately on your left and the Coach & Horses will be on your right after the row of shops.


Some Parking is available on Kew Green and parking should also be available at the Coach and Horses (The reception venue) which is only a short walk from Cambridge Cottage. There is a England/Scotland Rugby Match at Twickenham so you may wish to allow extra time to find a parking space.
