Airport Transfers from London Gatwick Airport (LGW) to Biggin Hill

One-Way Transfer
A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: the North Terminal to the Biggin Hill Memorial Museum, the South Terminal to a house on a lane off the A233, or a home in the village to Gatwick for an airline flight. On landing, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time; for the journey to the airport, you set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.
Round-Trip Service
Round-Trip Service books both directions in one reservation: the South Terminal to a relative's house on the Downs on arrival day, and back out to the airport when you leave, or the North Terminal to rooms close to the Memorial Museum for a commemoration weekend. In September and November, local cars are reserved early. With both directions in one booking, the return is secured from the start; you set both pick-up times yourself, and the confirmation lists them.
Hourly Service
Hourly service keeps one chauffeur and one vehicle with you for a set number of hours. When you book, you set the start at LGW, the final address and the hours you need, and you add the day's plan to the reservation so the chauffeur has it before your flight lands. It suits an arrival day with appointments, not a straight run to one hotel.

London Gatwick Airport to Biggin Hill: Route and Drive Time

High on the North Downs, Biggin Hill is the last village of the Bromley borough before Greater London gives way to Kent. From the Gatwick terminals it is 25 miles, normally 55 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes. The car takes the M23 north and the M25 east, then leaves the motorway and climbs by country lanes up the scarp of the Downs to the village.

Where the ride ends inside the village varies: the houses and shops along Main Road, the A233 that runs through the village, the Memorial Museum near the old airfield, or a house down one of the lanes on the hillside.

Journey times vary with traffic and weather. The last climb is on lanes, so the exact address and the house name help the chauffeur choose the right approach.

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London Gatwick Airport

The village has an airfield of its own, but London Biggin Hill Airport serves only private jets and helicopters, with no scheduled or fare-paying passenger flights. Anyone travelling on an airline ticket lands at one of the London airports, and Gatwick, with its North and South Terminals, is the nearest by time. Give your terminal in the booking and the car goes there.

For arrivals, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules. Gatwick asks drivers collecting passengers to use the Short Stay car parks.

No railway serves the village, so there is no simple rail alternative from the airport.

Arriving at Your Address in Biggin Hill

During the Battle of Britain, fighters flew from RAF Biggin Hill to defend London. That history is told at the Biggin Hill Memorial Museum, with St George's RAF Chapel of Remembrance alongside.

Give the exact address when you book, and your confirmation shows where the car will pull up. For a house on one of the rural lanes, the house name is as important as the road.

Chartwell, Churchill's country home outside Westerham and now a National Trust property, is a short drive south of the village. A visit there during your stay can be booked as a separate journey from your address.

From Biggin Hill Back to London Gatwick Airport

Going back, reckon on 55 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes, starting with the lanes down from the Downs and then the M25 and the M23. Weekday peaks on the M25 add time. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

Check your departure terminal, North or South, before you book, and enter it in the booking.

If your flight falls on the Battle of Britain anniversary in September or on Remembrance weekend in November, leave a little extra time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before booking your airport transfer with Bookinglane.

How far is Biggin Hill from Gatwick?

By road the village is 25 miles away, normally 55 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes by car, by the M23, the M25 and then lanes up onto the North Downs.

My flight into Gatwick is delayed. Is the car moved to the new time?

Yes. The chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time, so the delay moves the pick-up with it. If you are rebooked onto another flight, give support its number.

Where at Gatwick will the chauffeur meet me for the drive to Biggin Hill?

The chauffeur collects you from the Short Stay parking of the terminal you arrive at, North or South, as Gatwick requires for pre-booked cars. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

Why land at Gatwick when Biggin Hill has its own airport?

London Biggin Hill Airport handles business aviation only, private jets and helicopters, and does not take scheduled or fare-paying passenger flights. Airline passengers use a London airport, and Gatwick is the quickest drive to the village.

A school class of 30 is visiting the Memorial Museum. How do we book from Gatwick?

Thirty pupils and teachers on one flight fit one coach: a Sprinter van carries up to 12 people with their bags, and bigger groups go by coach, with up to 56 seats. Book separately for anyone who flies on another day.
