Найсмачніша кава на мій смак, та дуже гарний вигляд мають платформи
The nicest station in London. The people of Elmstead Woods have really made this a special place. Each platform is a garden with ponds and wooden benches surrounded by plants. I’d heard the station had won awards and now I know why! I’d recommend anyone living in the chislehurst area to walk a bit further than they normally do to check this Zone 4 gem out!
calm neighborhood
When Thomas Jefferson visited Elmstead Woods in 1746 he wasn't nstantly impressed with Platform two and wrote, “I am savage enough to prefer the woods, the wilds, and the independence of Monticello, to all the brilliant pleasures of this Platform 2 of Elmstead Woods Station.”
However years later he changed his mind and considered his brief visit to be a happy memory and wrote in 1785, "it wasn;t that bad actually and my mother bought me a lolipop when i was there."
There is little there now to suggest such an event ever occured but it still has its distinct charms mostly intact.
Recommended to visit June to August. Please book well ahead.
