Dacres Wood Court in London

About the project

Where is Dacres Wood Court located?

Perched at the corner of Acorn Way and Mayow Road, Dacres Wood Court resides in the Forest Hill area of southeast London, a leafy residential area that lies within the borough of Lewisham. The district envelops its residents in a welcoming atmosphere with its charming period properties, hip cafes, and cosy pubs. The quiet streets of Forest Hill are lined with occasional spots of lush greenery and a collection of independent shopping, arts, and entertainment facilities.

Living up to its name, the neighbourhood is generously peppered with green spaces that help Londoners forget everything about the hustle and bustle of the megapolis. A 5-minute walk away from Dacres Wood Court, Mayow Park offers a splendid place for a tranquil stroll or a jog. The borough’s oldest park is packed with various greenery, including mature English oak trees, a community orchard, fruit hedgerows, beautiful flowerbeds, and other plants. Moreover, the park is home to a community garden, known as Grow Mayow, where visitors can indulge in some gardening and growing produce. In addition, it’s a perfect destination to enjoy some competition on one of the area’s tennis courts or a bowling green, while children are being kept busy on a playground. To get even closer to nature, residents of the new development can take a 9-minute stroll to Dacres Wood Nature Reserve, where they will be sheltered from the city’s buzz.

Tucked away from the bustling streets of the City, Forest Hill still provides excellent transport links to the city centre that allow residents to reach it in no time. It takes 13 minutes to arrive at Forest Hill Station by foot. Alongside Sydenham Station, it provides splendid rail connections to the city, the country, and the rest of the world. You have access to numerous destinations, including London Bridge, St. Pancras, Gatwick Airport, and Brighton.
