Southeastern trains from London Bridge to Sevenoaks

By Lauren Ryan | Updated June 8, 2026
Southeastern is the only train operator offering direct routes from London Bridge to Sevenoaks, completing the journey in just 21 minutes on the fastest trains, with some services with additional stops taking about 50 minutes.
Southeastern offers a single-class service, with no seat reservations. On their Mainline Service from London Bridge to Sevenoaks, you’ll find comfortable seating, power sockets and USB points at all seats and free Wi-Fi. 

Do Southeastern trains have First Class?

No, First Class has been declassified on Southeastern trains but you’ll often still find the former First Class seats on many routes, usually at the ends of the train. 
Anyone with a Standard ticket can snag one of these wider seats, but as there are no reservations, this will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Bear in mind, there is no catering on board – so stock up on snacks!

How fast is the Wi-Fi on Southeastern trains?

The Wi-Fi on Southeastern trains is generally designed for light browsing. London Bridge to Sevenoaks is considered a Mainline service, so you’ll get a daily data allowance of 100MB compared to 75MB on Metro routes.

Southeastern data is fine for emails, WhatsApp and browsing, but you will likely not be able to stream video or audio.

Remember: Once you hit your data limit, the speed drops to a throttled level. So download your series before you board!

How much luggage space is available on Southeastern trains?

Be confident about where your luggage will fit when you board your London Bridge to Sevenoaks train:

  • Overhead racks: These are deep enough for cabin-sized suitcases, backpacks and laptop bags.
  • Under-seat space: Store slim bags or umbrellas here, though space can be restricted by supports at some seats.
  • Luggage stacks: Vertical floor-standing luggage racks can be found near the doors and by the accessible areas. Store your large suitcase here.

Train travel from London Bridge to Sevenoaks

With a few simple tips up your sleeve, you’ll be taking the train from London Bridge to Sevenoaks like a local.

Departing from London Bridge station

London Bridge station features a street-level concourse, where you enter underneath the platforms. 

  • Platforms to Sevenoaks: Platforms 6 and 7 are the most common for fast services to Sevenoaks – these are through platforms located in the middle of the station. Some slower services depart from platforms 1, 2 and 3 located on the high level.
  • Grab-and-go refreshments: As the train to Sevenoaks doesn’t offer any catering, you can grab some snacks at railway reliables like Leon, Upper Crust, Starbucks, M&S Simply Food and Waitrose – all located on the main concourse inside the gates.

Onboard experience on trains from London Bridge to Sevenoaks

The route from London to Sevenoaks comprises a transition from urban jungle to the Garden of England that is Kent. You’ll be treated to glimpses of London’s sky-high landscapes as you depart, before shifting to progressively greener views.
  • Camera at the ready: The most scenic part of the journey is the transition to the North Downs. Get ready to snap shots of the Darrent Valley as you emerge from the Polhill Tunnel, and you may also spot Fort Halstead research site as you approach your destination.
  • Where to sit: While sitting on the left offers better views of the London skyline, we recommend sitting on the right to get the best views of the Kent countryside and North Downs.

Arriving at Sevenoaks station

Sevenoaks station serves as a major gateway to Kent, and luckily offers a straightforward passenger experience. However, it is not located directly in Sevenoaks’ historic centre, so it’s worth being aware of your transport options.

  • Main Exit: The main exit leads to London Road. Turning right will bring you uphill towards the town in about a 15–20 minute walk, or a further 10 minutes past the centre to Knole Park.
  • Rear Exit: This exit is accessible via a walkway from Platform 1. Take this exit to get to Car Park 1 and the Morewood Close area.
  • Onward travel: You’ll find a small bus interchange outside connecting to the town centre and nearby villages like Otford and Westerham. The taxi rank is on the left.
If you decide to walk from the station to Sevenoaks centre, be aware that the uphill walk might be a struggle if you have a lot of luggage. Also, the station coffee shop and newsagents are the last retail points before you reach the town, so make sure to grab a drink or snack there if you need a post-train boost!
