The museum is at 12 Holland Park Road, Kensington, Greater London, W14 8LZ, so drivers need to use nearby street parking or a separate car park rather than expecting a museum car park. RBKC Museums recommends travelling by public transport where possible, while limited metered parking is available nearby from Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 6.30pm (RBKC Museums). A Blue Badge drop-off and pick-up bay is provided on Holland Park Road at the step-free entrance, with up to 4 hours of [free parking](https://www.parksy.com/parking-near-me) (RBKC Museums). The museum opens from 10am to 5.30pm, with last entry at 4.30pm, and is closed Tuesdays (RBKC Museums). These visitor hours are useful when planning a paid parking stay, particularly if you are combining a museum visit with other stops in Kensington. ## Parksy Parking Within a Few Steps of Leighton Parksy lists three priced spaces 83 yd from Leighton. The choices include a driveway space on Warwick Gardens at £2.60 an hour, a space near Copthorne Tara Hotel at £12.20 a day, and a space near St Mark Hotel at £12.20 a day. A secure covered space in West Kensington is listed 91 yd away at £125 a month. This option is suited to regular parking rather than a single museum visit, while the nearby hourly and daily spaces give drivers more flexible stays. Two further priced spaces are listed slightly farther away: a 24/7 space at Barkston Gardens, London SW10, 110 yd away at £11.10 a day, and a space in London Town, W14 and SW6, 125 yd away at £8.50 a day. The distances place all six listings within a short walk of the site. Show map of Kensington ## Busy Times and Parking Controls Around Kensington Limited metered parking near Leighton is available Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 6.30pm (RBKC Museums). Those controlled hours cover much of the museum's opening period, so a short daytime visit is likely to require a paid street-parking session rather than relying on unrestricted kerbside space. Saturday parking is also identified by RBKC Museums as part of the nearby metered parking arrangements (RBKC Museums). The surrounding streets serve a busy central London neighbourhood, and spaces can be under pressure when museum visitors, hotel guests and local activity overlap. The site is closed Tuesdays, while opening hours run from 10am to 5.30pm on visiting days, with last entry at 4.30pm (RBKC Museums). Drivers visiting at weekends or during popular daytime periods should allow time to reach a booked space and walk to the entrance. ## Other Named Parking Near Holland Park Road The Barkston Gardens space is listed as 110 yd from Leighton and is available 24/7. A further Parksy space in London Town, W14 and SW6, is listed 125 yd away. It costs £8.50 a day, making it the lowest-priced daily option among the nearby priced listings. The West Kensington covered space is another named alternative for drivers seeking a monthly arrangement. RBKC Museums identifies limited metered parking nearby and a free Blue Badge bay with up to 4 hours for drop-off and pick-up (RBKC Museums). The Blue Badge provision is on Holland Park Road at the step-free museum entrance. ## Stations and Walking Routes to Leighton House Kensington (Olympia) station is the nearest station, 0.3 mi from Leighton and a 7 min walk away. The station provides a practical alternative to driving when nearby kerbside spaces are busy. West Kensington tube station is approximately an 11 min walk from the museum, while Holland Park tube station is approximately a 12 min walk away. Both stations offer routes into the surrounding Kensington area without needing to find a space beside the entrance. RBKC Museums lists Leighton House at 12 Holland Park Road, London W14 8LZ, and recommends travelling by public transport where possible (RBKC Museums). The entrance's step-free access is on Holland Park Road, alongside the Blue Badge drop-off and pick-up bay.
