One-Way Transfer

A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: the North Terminal to the Royal Marsden at Belmont, the South Terminal to a hotel near Sutton station, or a house near Gander Green Lane to the North Terminal for an early departure. For arrivals, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time; for a departure, 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 hotel near the Secombe Theatre for a run of performances, with the return to that terminal after the final night, or the North Terminal to relatives in Sutton and out again. Over Derby weekend, cars in the borough go 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 Sutton: Route and Drive Time

Sutton, the main town of its London borough, lies where Greater London meets Surrey. No airport is faster to reach from it than Gatwick: the ride measures 20 miles, normally 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes.

One way in from the south is the A217, which runs from Junction 8 of the M25 to Sutton past Belmont. At Belmont the road passes the Royal Marsden's Sutton site, next door to the Institute of Cancer Research; beyond them, the road reaches the town centre, with the station at the top of the High Street. Gander Green Lane, the home of Sutton United, is to the west.

Journey times vary with traffic and weather. When booking, state your Gatwick terminal and the full Sutton address, or the name of the venue.

London Gatwick Airport to Sutton: Route and Drive Time

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London Gatwick Airport

Two terminals, North and South, serve Gatwick's passengers, and pick-ups take place from the Short Stay car park at each of them. Check your ticket for the terminal; give your terminal in the booking and the car goes there.

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's rail links point towards central London: the quickest Thameslink services take 29 minutes to London Bridge, and Gatwick Express runs non-stop to Victoria. For Sutton, south of those routes, the car goes straight to the address without a change.

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London Gatwick Airport

Arriving at Your Address in Sutton

From the station, the High Street, largely closed to traffic, leads down past the St Nicholas centre. The Secombe Theatre, which takes its name from the entertainer Sir Harry Secombe, a former resident, is close to the centre, and hotels and flats are spread around it.

For an address on or just off the High Street, send the full address with the booking and we will tell you how close the car can go. Outside the pedestrian area, give the exact address when you book, and your confirmation shows where the car will pull up.

If you are visiting the Royal Marsden at Belmont, add the building or unit to the road name, and the car takes you to that entrance.

From Sutton Back to London Gatwick Airport

Heading back, count on 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes when traffic is normal. Set the pick-up from that drive length and your airline's check-in time rather than from a round hour. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

Your flight home leaves from either the North or the South Terminal; enter it in the booking. Allocations of airlines between them have changed in the past, so check your ticket in the days before you fly.

On a Sutton United home match day, if your pick-up is near the ground, choose a pick-up time with some margin for supporters' traffic around Gander Green Lane.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How far is Sutton from Gatwick?

The centre of Sutton is 20 miles by road, normally 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes by car. Heathrow is also 20 miles away, but takes 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 40 minutes.

Our flight to Gatwick has been pushed back by three hours. Is the transfer affected?

No. The chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time, so the later landing is covered. Keep the flight number in the booking.

Where is the pick-up point at Gatwick?

Gatwick handles collections in the Short Stay car parks, one at the North Terminal and one at the South. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

Is Sutton inside the ULEZ?

Yes. Sutton is a London borough, and the Ultra Low Emission Zone covers every London borough around the clock. Gatwick, in West Sussex, is outside it. The rules and current rates of each charge are published by the authority or airport that runs it.

Our touring cast of sixteen flies in with costume trunks. What do we book?

Sixteen passengers exceed a single Sprinter van, so the choice is two vans or a coach, which seats up to 56. Describe the trunks and their sizes in the booking, so the vehicle is matched to the load.

What do you need to know about London Gatwick Airport in 2026–2027?

Gatwick increased its drop-off charge from 6 January 2026; it applies at the North and South Terminal drop-off zones, while collections use the Short Stay car parks. In Sutton, the London Cancer Hub next to the Royal Marsden received planning permission in February 2026. The rules and current rates of each charge are published by the authority or airport that runs it.
