One-Way Transfer
A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: Terminal 5 to Epsom Hospital, Terminal 2 to the University for the Creative Arts campus, or a house near the Downs to Terminal 3 for a flight to the Gulf. 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 4 to a hotel in Epsom for the Derby Festival, and back to Heathrow once racing is over. For the first weekend of June, book as soon as your race tickets are confirmed. 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 Epsom: Route and Drive Time

Epsom is 28 miles by road, normally 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes from the Heathrow terminals. It sits just outside Greater London, south-east of the airport, and with Ewell it gives its name to a Surrey borough that borders Sutton and Kingston; the A24 runs through its centre.

Your address in town shapes the end of the trip. Epsom station and the High Street are in the middle of town; Epsom Hospital and the campus of the University for the Creative Arts are in the town too; the racecourse lies on open downland to the south.

Journey times vary with traffic and weather. Enter your terminal and the street address when you book.

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London Heathrow Airport

Air France, KLM and the other SkyTeam airlines generally use Terminal 4, so a racegoer connecting through Paris or Amsterdam for the Derby is likely to land there. 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.

Terminal 4's own multi-storey car park closed on 23 June 2026, and collections there now use a separate area outside the building.

Arriving at Your Address in Epsom

If you are visiting a patient at Epsom Hospital, a student at the University for the Creative Arts or friends on the roads near the Downs, give the exact address when you book, and your confirmation shows where the car will pull up.

The racecourse, home of the Derby and the Oaks, is 2 miles from the town centre by road, 10–15 minutes. The ride from the airport may finish at a hotel in town or at a house near the course; on race days, add the gate or the car park named on your ticket.

The town's main station has trains to Waterloo and Victoria, so guests who land at Heathrow for a few days at the races can also reach central London from their Epsom hotel.

From Epsom Back to London Heathrow Airport

The drive back takes 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes on a normal day; plan by that length, not by a time on the clock, and add a margin in the weekday rush hours. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

Give the departure terminal from your ticket, since Heathrow's terminals are far apart.

Derby weekend needs the most care. Oaks Day is Friday 4 June and Derby Day Saturday 5 June 2027, and race traffic builds on the roads around the Downs; a pick-up on either day needs extra time, and a flight on the Sunday after is best booked well ahead.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How much time does the Heathrow–Epsom transfer take?

Epsom is 28 miles by road, normally 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes, about the same as the drive to Gatwick.

What if my flight from Dublin lands at Heathrow later than planned?

Nothing changes for you: the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time. Once the flight number is in your booking, the chauffeur follows the new arrival time.

Is the meeting point at the Heathrow kerb?

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

Can I be dropped at Epsom Downs Racecourse on Derby Day?

Derby Day is Saturday 5 June 2027. Access to the Downs on race days follows the course's traffic arrangements, so send the full address with the booking and we will tell you how close the car can go.

How do we book a hospitality party of twenty from Heathrow?

A Sprinter van carries up to 12 people with their bags, and bigger groups go by coach, with up to 56 seats, so twenty guests can travel together in one coach. When you book for other people, all their transfers can be kept in one account, each with its own booking and confirmation.

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

The 2027 Derby Festival is on Friday 4 June (Oaks Day) and Saturday 5 June (Derby Day). East Surrey Council takes over local services in Epsom on 1 April 2027, replacing the borough and county councils.
