One-Way Transfer
A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: Terminal 5 to a house off the A25, Terminal 2 to the Denbies estate, or a home near Dorking Deepdene station to Terminal 3 for a transatlantic flight. 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: Terminal 3 to a hotel near Box Hill when you land, and from Dorking to Heathrow on the day you fly home. For a cycling week in summer, one booking for both journeys keeps the bike boxes in a single plan. 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 LHR, 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 Heathrow Airport to Dorking: Route and Drive Time

From the Heathrow terminals, Dorking is 31 miles by road, normally 55 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes. The route follows the M25 to Leatherhead, Junction 9, and then the A24 south into the Mole Valley, with Box Hill rising on the left as you approach the town.

The end of the ride depends on your side of town. The old centre is around West Street and the High Street, where the A24 crosses the A25 below the Downs; Dorking has three stations; and Denbies Wine Estate covers the slope west of the A24.

Journey times vary with traffic and weather. Your terminal and your full address are all the booking needs.

London Heathrow Airport to Dorking: Route and Drive Time

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London Heathrow Airport

At Heathrow the terminal depends on the airline: Virgin Atlantic flights, for instance, leave from Terminal 3, while British Airways is in Terminal 5. Give your terminal in the booking and the car goes there. Heathrow does not allow pick-ups on the terminal forecourts; collections take place from the terminal car parks.

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.

If you are bringing a bike box to ride Box Hill, enter it in the booking along with the cases, so the vehicle at the terminal has room for it.

Arriving at Your Address in Dorking

Dorking is a market town on two main roads, the A24 and the A25. Its streets near West Street, in the old centre, are narrow; send the full address with the booking and we will tell you how close the car can go.

Beyond the centre, addresses climb towards Box Hill, whose zig-zag road carried the Olympic cycling road races in 2012, or run out to the Denbies estate and into the villages of the Mole Valley. For a hotel near the hill or a visit to the vineyard, name the building or the entrance you need.

If you plan to go on by train, the town's main station has services to London Waterloo and Victoria, and Dorking Deepdene is on the line to Guildford and Redhill.

From Dorking Back to London Heathrow Airport

For the return, the drive is what to plan around, 55 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes in ordinary traffic, rather than by the clock. The A24 north passes Leatherhead before it reaches the M25, and both can be slow at peak times. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

Copy the departure terminal on your ticket into the booking, so the car pulls in at the right one.

On a summer weekend, riders gather on the lanes around Box Hill. If you set off then, allow for slow-moving cyclists on the roads near the hill before you reach the A24.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How far is Dorking from Heathrow Airport?

Dorking is 31 miles by road, normally 55 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes, using the M25 as far as Junction 9 and then the A24.

How does the chauffeur know when I have landed at Heathrow?

The chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time, so a delay or an early arrival moves the pick-up too. Put your flight number in the booking and nothing more is required.

Is there a pick-up point at the Heathrow terminal doors?

No. Heathrow does not allow pick-ups on the terminal forecourts; collections take place from the terminal car parks. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

How far is Box Hill from Dorking by car?

The hill rises just north-east of the town, but by road the top is about 7 miles away, 25–35 minutes. A transfer from Heathrow can end at a hotel or a house near the hill if you give that address.

Can our cycling club bring bikes from Heathrow?

Yes. Enter the number of bags in the booking form; for golf bags, bikes or other bulky items, tell support so the vehicle is matched to the load. Up to 12 riders with their luggage fit in one Sprinter van.

What do you need to know about Dorking in 2026–2027?

On 1 April 2027 Dorking's council services pass to a new authority, East Surrey Council. At Heathrow, trains no longer stop under Terminals 2 and 3, where the station shut on 25 June 2026, so rail passengers use Terminal 4 or Terminal 5.
