Located in SW15, Roehampton is in-between Putney, Wimbledon, Richmond and Barnes. There are plenty of places to grab a bite, enjoy a drink and hang out with friends on campus and in the local area. 

Our beautiful campus is made up of 54 acres of parkland and modern facilities. We are surrounded by nature and greenery with Richmond Park next door. On campus you will find plenty of hangout spots including: The Hive Café, The Union Bar, the Library Café and various canteens and social spaces across the university, as well as college kitchens for our commuting students. There is a shop on campus stocked with all the necessities.

Down Roehampton Lane you will find the King’s Head pub, a Greggs, Morley’s and Subway, as well as a local Co-op. There is also our local supermarket, ASDA, a short bus ride away.

In SW15

Putney High Street is our nearest high-street, with everything from H&M and Boots, to Wagamama’s and Be at One. There are great charity shops, a cinema, supermarkets, pubs and bars, meaning everything you need is close-by. Be sure to check out the Half Moon for some live music and comedy, and watch the annual Cambridge versus Oxford Boat Race every spring. 

Heading into central London

Hop on the train at Barnes, either straight to Waterloo and discover South Bank with some of London’s most iconic attractions such as the London Eye, or get off at Wandsworth, Putney, Clapham or Queenstown Road (for Battersea Power Station) along the way. You can take the tube from Putney Bridge, get on the District Line and head to Wimbledon or in the other direction, straight into central, getting off at Westminster for Buckingham Palace.
