Living in Southfields

Public transport

Easy access: Earl’s Court (less than 30 mins), Richmond (by bus), Heathrow (50mins).

Shops in Southfields

Southfields has a small village-like feel, so there are no big supermarkets but rather greengrocers, butcher, delis, and off-licences.  To do a bigger shop or find clothes, you’ll need to head elsewhere.

Wimbledon

10 mins on the District line with high street stores, shopping centres and chain supermarkets.
