Transport and access
Accessibility
We want our museum to be as inclusive as possible. If you have special access requirements, head to our accessibility page for details, or contact us on 020 7405 2127 / info@dickensmuseum.com and a member of our team will be glad to help.
Baggage
Some of the rooms in the historic house are quite small, so we recommend leaving any large bags or suitcases in one of the local storage sites, such as at King's Cross and St Pancras International Rail Stations. Suitcases and large bags are not permitted in the Charles Dickens Museum.
Only small handbags or backpacks are allowed into the historic house, to be worn on the front or carried by hand.
Pushchairs & Prams
Due to restrictions in space in the historic house, we are not able to allow pushchairs or prams into the house and they will need to be left in the cloakroom.
Getting Here
Underground: The nearest tube station is Russell Square, which is only a 5 minute walk from our front door. Russell Square is served by the Piccadilly Line.
Other stations within walking distance are:
- Chancery Lane (Central Line - 10 minute walk)
- Kings Cross/St Pancras Station (Victoria Line, Piccadilly Line, Hammersmith & City Line, Northern Line and Metropolitan Line - 15 minute walk)

We can also be reached by bus on services: 7, 17, 19, 38, 45, 46, 55 or 243.
There is also a cycle rack in Doughty Street and a Santander Cycles docking station nearby.
There is no car park at the Charles Dickens Museum. On street parking is available to holders of a valid Blue Badge, subject to local restrictions. Alternative parking can be found near by in Russell Square, or further details can be found on the Camden Council website.
There is so much to explore in London. Why not combine your visit to the Charles Dickens Museum with another centrally located attraction.
