There is a big Tesco Extra which is 7 minutes walk. A couple of restaurants nearby but nothing fancy that will attract people. The closest pubs are approximately 10-15 minutes walk towards Brentford. Sky studios are in close proximity to Tesco. Heathrow is 20mins away by car or 30 minutes with a combination of bus and tube. Only one bus (H91) available heading towards Hammersmith through Chiswick. Tube station (Osterley or Boston Manor) 20minutes walk. Syon Lane Train Station just 7 minutes walk, with trains every 30 minutes towards Waterloo.

The good thing is a Tesco Extra within around 10 mins walk which we thought it’s convenience. However the bad thing is there aren’t many restaurants nearby and we have to take 20mins bus to go to Centre if we would like to eat outside.
