Location
Situated in the heart of South Kensington, a number
of London’s most famous attractions are
within walking distance of Baden-Powell House.
Access to other parts of the city is made easy
by the close proximity of South Kensington and
Gloucester Road Tubes.
The Activity Centre attracts a mixture of visitors
all year round including Scouts, Guides, youth
organisations, schools, and charities as well
as companies wishing to train staff in the vibrant
and inspiring setting of the United Kingdom’s
largest city.
London really is a ‘city of activity’,
with more than 30% of its land mass made up of
parks and green spaces (greater than any other
city of its size in the world) and over 200 museums.
Not to mention the many theatres, cinemas, street
markets, music venues… As the author of
the first English dictionary, Dr Samuel Johnson,
once famously said, ‘If you’re tired
of London, you’re tired of life . . . ’
