A small place with good connections
Hinchley Wood is a compact neighbourhood that grew up in the 1930s around its railway station and the A309 Kingston bypass. It sits just over the Surrey border from Tolworth, in Elmbridge, but it's only around ten minutes away by car, and the A309 gives us a direct run from the A3 at Hook.
School runs to Hinchley Wood School
Hinchley Wood School, with its secondary school and sixth form, draws students from a wide area, and some families book us for the daily run. We can set up regular morning and afternoon journeys, adjust them for exams and inset days, and send the same driver wherever possible. All our drivers are licensed, which includes an enhanced DBS check. Read more on our school runs page.
Hinchley Wood station
The station has trains to Waterloo via Surbiton. We collect commuters from here after late trains, and take residents with luggage to the London terminals directly when a change at Surbiton or Waterloo isn't practical.
Why airport runs are quick from here
Because Hinchley Wood sits on the A309 with easy access to the A3 and the M25, it's one of the more convenient places in our area to start a flight transfer. Heathrow is typically 35 to 50 minutes away and Gatwick usually under an hour. For early departures, we recommend booking the evening before.
