There is one at Crystal Palace - Regular trains to Victoria and then jump on the tube to Westminster ! Its the most central one I can think of.

There is one to the west of London too - can't remember the name, but im sure someone here can help with that one.

two CC site in London, Crystal palace and Abbey Wood, http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=1382

tent city is closed now!!!

I think you get the bus in from Crystal Palace but Abbey Wood has a train station very close by about 10 minutes walk at the most.  The facilities are the usual CC standards but one thing we did like is that when the toilet blocks are closed for cleaning (always when you are getting ready to leave) they have a couple of single toilets that are open for use.  The floors in the blocks have under floor heating and as we usually go in December it is lovely when getting changed for the shower.  It is a pretty reasonable cost for staying in London and if you get a train ticker some of the attractions offer "2 for 1" on entry.  It is fairly easy to get to by road too.

If you want any more information on Abbey Wood just ask. 

Crystal Palace is next to Crystal Palace train station  - you just need to trot down Crystal Palace Parade.  No need for buses or Brixton !

Not sure where Abbey Wood trains go to   - probably London Bridge!

hi all

Thanks for replies.

I think the Crystal Palace one sounds best.

Thanks again
