Ways of getting to the barge at Little Venice are:

NEAREST TUBE : Warwick Avenue (Bakerloo line) - exit and walk up to the traffic lights, turn right into Blomfield Road and you will see the barge on your left opposite No 35, walk along the railings to the gate (opp. no 40) and back on yourself to the barge along the towpath.

NEAREST B.R.: Paddington - 3 minutes' walk. The footbridge over the platforms (near the end of the station furthest from the main concourse) connects to the canal towpath - follow the signs to "Sheldon Square" or "Paddington Central". To find the footbridge from the main concourse, walk along Platform 1 or Platform 8.

BY BUS: Bus routes 6, 16 & 98 run along Edgware Road. Alight at Blomfield Road and walk alongside the canal (4 minutes' walk)

BY CAR: On-street parking is available in the area and at weekends there is no charge.

BY WATER BUS: The Waterbus runs between Camden Lock Market and Little Venice every hour and the very pleasent journey takes 45 minutes.

BY BOAT: Little Venice is the junction of the Regent's Canal and the Paddington Branch of the Grand Union Canal. It can therefore be approached from the G.U. main line at Bull's Bridge (either from the Thames at Brentford or from the Midlands and beyond), or via the Regent's Canal from the Thames at Limehouse or the Lee Navigation via the Hertford Union Canal.
