Lovely week relaxing & visiting London

After a last-minute switch from a site in deepest Cornwall (to avoid the staycation-related beach frenzy and queues at supermarkets, etc) we decided on a week at Abbey Wood to have a city-break. With 2 teenagers we needed an active holiday. As other reviewers have said, the site is ideally placed for the station into London. The station was 5 - 10 mins down the road & then approx 30 mins directly into London. We had a fabulous week of travelling into London and sight-seeing. We were especially good at 'eating out to help out'! Many of the pubs & restaurants had only just opened and were very pleased to have customers. The Abbey Arms by the station does delicious pizzas. The site is green & lush with foxes & squirrels galore and the chatty but joyful parakeets. Clean, tidy and well-kept with friendly staff. Due to the current circumstances, the park wasn't busy and I had the odd experience of being the only person in the female shower-block most days. Unheard of in school holidays when it is usually packed with women, children and teens blow-drying their hair! Most people seemed to be using their on-board facilities. The only reason I would hesitate to stay here again was the last 10 mins of the journey in which were a bit stressful due to towing a van over the severe speed bumps in the residential area (my hitch was knocked on each one) and lots of 'road furniture' and precarious parking. We made it, of course, but it wasn't my favourite bit of towing. Also, as other reviewers have said, you can't use Knee Hill to leave the site so have to go back through the residential area. Deep breath, plan your route and you'll be fine!
