Nestled on the cusp of Greater London and Kent, Swanley is increasingly recognised as a favourable yet often overlooked commuter town.

Despite its London postcode under Bromley (BR8), the town itself belongs to the Sevenoaks district in Kent, offering a unique blend of suburban convenience and countryside charm.

Though some locals feel the town is run down in parts, its quick transport links and affordable property prices relative to the capital make it an attractive option for many commuters.

And from historic Roman villas and ancient woodlands to vibrant parks and community events, Swanley offers a wealth of activities that suit all interests, extending its appeal beyond transport and affordability.
