Travelling to Roehampton

The best way to travel to Roehampton is by using trains and London public transport. Plan your journey with National Rail. Barnes Station is in Zone 3 and is the nearest station to Roehampton. At Barnes Station there is a free bus service to the University and staff will be on hand to assist you.

A small number of parking spaces will be available at Queen Mary Hospital (SW15 5PN) opposite the Roehampton campus, however we would strongly advise you to travel by public transport wherever possible.

If you or anyone in your group needs assistance in parking please let us know before the open day by email undergraduate@roehampton.ac.uk.
