Arriving by public transport Our closest tube stations are Swiss Cottage (Jubilee line) and Finchley Road (Jubilee and Metropolitan lines), which are both around 5 minutes’ walk away. Belsize Park (Northern line) is a 15 minute walk. We are also just 10 minutes’ walk from two London Overground stations: South Hampstead (Euston to Watford DC line) and Finchley Road & Frognal (North London line). A number of busses serve the local area (routes 13, 31, 46, 82, 113, 268 and C11) and some national coach routes also stop at Finchley Road. To plan your journey within London, please visit the Transport for London website.
Arriving by car Parking is available on site for parents/carers bringing a vulnerable child who is 12 years or below to the Tavistock Centre (if your child is 13 or over, it may be possible to park if you are travelling a long distance). Please ring and speak to our admin team in order to book a parking space. Unfortunately, you will not be able to park unless this has been pre-booked. Even then, parking is not guaranteed. If all the blue child and family bays are occupied you will have to park in the pay and display bays on the surrounding roads. Please note, if you park in any of the other bays in the car park your vehicle may be clamped.
