Hotels and Travelling to Soul Speaks

Kingswood Address: Kingswood House, Seeley Drive, Southwark, SE21 8QN

This stunning venue is home to Soul Speaks. Where contemporary chic merges with time-honoured comforts. Kingswood Arts is based in 19th-century Kingswood House, a former mansion once owned by the inventor of Bovril!

Step inside and you’ll find a space brimming with charm and character—gracefully restored yet full of modern spirit. Tucked away in the heart of South London, the estate offers sweeping grounds, grand architecture, and an atmosphere that invites creativity, connection, and reflection.

From the ornate wood-panelled rooms to the light-flooded studios and hidden garden corners, every inch of Kingswood whispers stories of the past while holding space for what’s yet to come. It’s more than a venue—it’s a feeling. A soulful setting that brings people together to speak, share, and simply be.

Driving:
Driving to Kingswood House in Southwark is a convenient option. Limited on-site parking may be available, and there is unrestricted parking on nearby residential streets, but availability can vary.
