Taxi or train from Knightsbridge?

By rail you would go Knightsbridge (the Piccadilly line) across to Putney Bridge (the District line), then a 15-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that it leaves a 15-minute walk through Bishops Park, unlit in winter. The taxi is about 20 min, or 35 min when the roads are full, but it is one journey rather than three, and nobody stands up for any of it. It is a fair fight on the way there. On the way back, when several thousand people want the same platform, it stops being one.

The route

The usual line from Knightsbridge is the A4 then the A315, then A4 then A219 Fulham Palace Road at the end. Roughly 5.4 miles, and the timing swings with the hour rather than the route: 20 min clear, 35 min loaded.

In Knightsbridge the pavement outside your door is often the one place a car cannot stop. We agree the point in SW1X, SW7 up front and the driver is on it, not circling.

Where the driver waits at Craven Cottage

Fulham Palace Road at the Bishops Park end - Stevenage Road is residents-only on matchdays. The ground backs onto the Thames with one road in, so drivers wait on Fulham Palace Road rather than trying to turn at the gate. Your driver sends the exact standing point and the registration before they set off, so you are not circling a car park looking for a number plate.

Address: Stevenage Road, Fulham, SW6 6HH.

Parking at Craven Cottage

If you were thinking of driving yourself: Craven Cottage sits inside a matchday or event-day controlled parking zone, on-site spaces are pre-book only and go early, and the residential streets around it are permit-holders only with active enforcement. A drop-off and a booked return sidesteps it entirely.

When to leave Knightsbridge

Doors are usually an hour before the match. Working back, that means leaving Knightsbridge around 35 min plus that hour on a busy night - and booking the return at the same time, because the road out is slower than the road in.
