Hounslow in South West London encompasses the area from Heathrow Airport out to Chiswick. This borough offers something for everyone as it covers some very cosmopolitan areas right through to the countryside. There are excellent links direct from Heathrow Airport’s underground station through 3 stations in Hounslow to Central London. In addition Hounslow also has an overground station which operates regular trains straight to Waterloo Station in approximately 40 minutes.

It also has excellent parks for lazy Sunday strolls. Among these are Dukes Meadow www.dukesmeadowstrust.org and the grounds surrounding the magnificent Chiswick House http://www.chgt.org.uk/, www.english-heritage.org.uk/server.php?show=nav.12705 And if animals are your thing then checking out the Hounslow Urban Farm www.visitlondon.com/attractions/detail/145798 is a must!
