Campsite near London

Aranyani

Can anybody recommend a good campsite that is in walking distance from a tube or overground into central London?  

Thanks for any suggestions.

Don't think any exist, if you are willing to get a bus to a station then there are a few options.

There is a site near Abbey Wood Station thats run by the Caravan Club but its a National Rail station rather than Overground or Underground.

There are a number of camp sites around Epping Forest which is just to the East of London accessible to public transport just Google for details.

Lee Valley (http://www.visitleevalley.org.uk/en/content/cms/where-to-stay-and-short-breaks/camping-caravan/) is less than 45 minutes by Overground from Edmonton to Liverpool Street station.

Thank you all

Abbey Wood looks good, but I will need to look into the rules for the low emission zone.

Crystal palace has one , about 20 minutes to London Victoria or London bridge stations from crystal palace train station ( just down the road )

So a diesel  campervan over 2.5 tonnes are impacted, assuming you are meaning the LEZ which covers most of London rather than the ULEZ in the central most part of London

Looks like it would cost £100 a day to drive my camper van to Abbey Wood campsite, that's a shame.

Then you are talking the LEZ which covers almost all of the inside of the M25 other than the furthest northern and south western corners. My understanding is you only pay on the days you drive it so if you drive in day 1, park it for the week and not move it, and then leave at the end of the stay then you have just 2 days LEZ fee to pay.
