Getting Around Bexleyheath

Bexleyheath serves as the main town centre of Bexley borough, and the council's Civic Offices are on its Broadway, close to the Broadway Shopping Centre. Two houses give the town its history. Red House, built in 1859–60 by Philip Webb for William Morris, is now run by the National Trust, which shows it on pre-booked guided tours. Danson House, a Georgian villa, stands in Danson Park, on the town's western side.

Bexleyheath station, north of the Broadway, has Southeastern services into London by way of Eltham and Lewisham. Add the train and its arrival time to the booking, and the car is scheduled for that arrival. The A2 runs just south of the town and leads to the M25 in one direction and central London in the other.

If your address is on a pedestrian stretch of the Broadway, send the full address with the booking and we will tell you how close the car can go. For a council meeting in the morning, a tour of Red House at midday and a visit to Danson Park, book by the hour: one chauffeur and one vehicle stay with you for the time you reserve.

Airport Transfers in Bexleyheath

London City Airport, by the Royal Docks, is 11 miles from Bexleyheath, 35–50 minutes; 3.74 million passengers used it in 2025. Gatwick is 41 miles south-west, 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, and Southend Airport 34 miles, also 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes. Heathrow is 31 miles, 1 hour 25 minutes to 1 hour 50 minutes, and Stansted Airport 45 miles, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes. The right one depends on your airline and route.

Book with your flight number. Whether you land early or late, your chauffeur checks the flight status and times the pick-up to when you actually land, and your booking confirmation shows where to meet the chauffeur. For a departure from Bexleyheath, what counts is the length of the drive, not the time on the clock: Gatwick and Southend Airport take a similar time, one round the M25 to the south and the other over the river to the north. Journey times vary with traffic and weather. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

Groups & Event Travel in Bexleyheath

Red House is shown on guided tours that start on the hour, and a history society, a design school or a group of Arts and Crafts enthusiasts may want to arrive together. For a party of eleven coming from central London, a Sprinter van carries up to 12 people with their bags, and bigger groups go by coach, with up to 56 seats; the vehicle is matched to the load.

When you book for other people, all their transfers can be kept in one account, each with its own booking and confirmation. If overseas members fly in for the visit on several flights, every arrival gets a transfer of its own.

Local vehicles and drivers are booked up early for Royal Ascot week and the run-up to Christmas. If your plans go beyond a standard booking, write to support with the dates, addresses, number of passengers, flights and luggage, and the team will arrange it.

Chauffeur Service in Bexleyheath

1-12 passengers For business
Trusted by professionals at
Round-Trip Service
Round-Trip Service books both directions in one reservation: from London City Airport to your hotel on the Broadway and out again after a business trip, or Bexleyheath to Royal Ascot in the morning and home in the evening. In June, around the royal meeting, cars for Ascot 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 is booked by time, not by route. Name the address in Bexleyheath where the day starts, the address where it finishes and how many hours you want, and one chauffeur and one car are reserved for you for that time. Share the plan for the day when you book, and the chauffeur will have it in advance. It suits a day of meetings or visits rather than one ride across town.
One-Way Service
One-Way Service covers one journey between two addresses: Gatwick to a house near Danson Park, Bexleyheath station to Red House for a booked tour, the Civic Offices to a meeting in Canary Wharf. For an airport pick-up, your chauffeur checks the flight status and times the pick-up to when you actually land, and your booking confirmation shows where to meet the chauffeur; for a departure, you set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.
