## Parking at Kew Palace via Ferry Lane

The nearest recommended car park is at Brentford Gate, reached via Ferry Lane near the Main Gate. The official Kew Palace information lists 300 spaces, opening from 11:00 to 16:00, and a £9 full-day charge throughout the year (hrp.org.uk). The entrance is practical for drivers heading to the site at Ferry Lane, Kew, Greater London, TW8 0DX, near Brentford.

Parking is limited, so arriving early is sensible when a visit depends on securing a space. The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew also describes Brentford Gate parking as first-come, first-served, with £7 for two hours mentioned in its visitor information (kewgardens.org.uk). Blue Badge holders can park free according to the official Kew Palace access information (hrp.org.uk).

## Busy Times and Street Rules Around Kew Road

Parking pressure is most noticeable when visitors are arriving for a full day at the gardens and palace, because the Brentford Gate car park is limited and spaces are first-come, first-served (kewgardens.org.uk). The garden’s visitor guidance recommends trains or buses for a less stressful arrival, which is particularly useful when driving close to opening time (kewgardens.org.uk).

Drivers should not use Kew Road, the A307, for parking: the official Kew Palace directions state that parking is not allowed there (hrp.org.uk). The approach to the site is through Ferry Lane to Brentford Gate, rather than by treating Kew Road as a place to wait for a space. This is important during busy seasonal visits, when stopping on the main approach can obstruct other traffic and leave visitors farther from the entrance.

## Other Parking Around Kew and Brentford

Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew identifies parking at its gates, including Brentford Gate and Elizabeth Gate, with payment possible at a card-only meter, through the [PayByPhone](https://www.parksy.com/blog/paybyphone-united-kingdom-review-pros-cons-summary-services) app or at the kiosk at Brentford or Elizabeth Gate (kew.org). The same visitor information gives £10 per day for parking (kew.org). These gate facilities are useful alternatives to approaching solely through the palace entrance, although the official guidance still describes parking as limited.

Motorcycles and mopeds can park without charge according to VisitRichmond’s Kew Palace access information (visitrichmond.co.uk). Elizabeth Gate on Kew Green opens at 10am every day, according to the Royal Botanic Gardens’ visual guide (kew.org).

## Parksy Spaces Close to Kew Palace

For a space reserved away from the attraction’s own car park, Parksy lists a driveway space in Kew, Richmond upon Thames, a few steps away, at £72 a month. The nearby Brentford options include a 24/7 space at the Travelodge, 0.2 miles away, priced at £11 an hour, and a space at Travelodge Kew Bridge, 0.3 miles away, at £4 an hour.

Three further covered or allocated spaces are listed in Brentford. Town Meadow has a secure covered space 0.3 miles away at £90 a week, while another secure covered space 0.3 miles away costs £75 a month. A secure allocated space with 24/7 access is 0.4 miles away and costs £75 a month. These choices cover short visits as well as longer stays near the Kew and Brentford boundary.

## Rail and Walking Routes to the Site

Kew Bridge railway station is the nearest station, 0.5 miles from the site and an 11-minute walk. The route provides a practical alternative when the Brentford Gate car park is busy, with the destination in Kew near Brentford rather than in Brentford itself.

Kew Gardens station is about a 13-minute walk away, while Brentford railway station is about a 14-minute walk away. Trains are specifically recommended by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew as a less stressful way to arrive when parking is limited (kewgardens.org.uk). From each station, allow time for the walk to Ferry Lane and the palace entrance rather than expecting to step directly from the platform into the attraction.
