Getting Around West Malling

West Malling is a small market town in the borough of Tonbridge and Malling, Kent, west of Maidstone. Just south of it lies Kings Hill, a business park and new settlement built on the former RAF West Malling airfield, about 2 miles from the town centre, 10–15 minutes by car.

West Malling station has trains to London Victoria. Add the train and its arrival time to the booking, and the car is scheduled for that arrival. Junction 4 of the M20 is close by, linking the town with the M25 and with Maidstone.

For an office building at Kings Hill or a house off the High Street, send the full address with your booking; the confirmation then tells you where the car will stop. A visitor with meetings at Kings Hill in the morning and in Tonbridge after lunch can book by the hour: one chauffeur and one vehicle stay with you for the time you reserve.

Heathrow is 59 miles, 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes; its four terminals, 2 to 5, served 84.5 million passengers in 2025.

Book with your flight number. For a colleague flying in for a meeting, 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 West Malling, what counts is the length of the drive, not the time on the clock: the M20 and the M25 can both be slow at the start and end of the working day. Journey times vary with traffic and weather. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

Groups & Event Travel in West Malling

Kings Hill is the business park next to the town. For a team flying in for a training week, or a client delegation visiting the business park, transfers can follow the flights and the meeting schedule.

When you book for other people, all their transfers can be kept in one account, each with its own booking and confirmation. If colleagues fly in on several flights, every arrival gets a transfer of its own. For a group going to dinner or to a race day together, 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.

Local vehicles and drivers are booked up early around Derby weekend in June. 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 West Malling

1-12 passengers For business
Trusted by professionals at
Round-Trip Service
Round-Trip Service books both directions in one reservation: Gatwick to a hotel near Kings Hill for a training week and out to the airport again on the last afternoon, or West Malling to Epsom Downs for the Derby and back to the town once racing is over. For a race day, set the return a little after the final race. 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 West Malling 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: Heathrow to a house in West Malling, West Malling station to an office at Kings Hill, a home in the town to a client in Sevenoaks. 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.
