Getting to Know… Kentish Town

Kentish Town underground station is part of the High Barnet branch of the reliable Northern Line, offering the convenience of a variety of commutes in and around Central London. The Northern Line flows through two branches that traverse Central London and connects with some of the city's most popular destinations such as Euston, King’s Cross, Waterloo, Charing Cross and Bank. An array of shopping options can be found if you hop off at Tottenham Court Road. Popular West End Shows are a speedy commute away via Leicester Square, and Old Street is only 15 minutes from Kentish Town.

Kentish Town station is also serviced by a Thameslink line, a main line on the National Railway System, which means you can catch a train to cities outside of London. It's also handy for those commuting to and from a number of key London airports. Meanwhile, Kentish Town West is a nearby London Overground station, which is another plus as it opens up other interesting London areas such as East London and Hampstead Heath.

Multiple buses make their stop on Kentish Town High Street and take you through the city’s centre. For example, London bus route 88 will take you to Clapham Common via central stops such as Piccadilly Circus, and the 134 bus terminates at University College Hospital/Euston Road. The N20 route is also a convenient 24-hour service that may come in handy on weekend outings, although the Northern Line also operates a 24-hour service on the Charing Cross branch Fridays and Saturdays!
