Pick-up in City of London, drop-off at Hickstead
Pick-up is anywhere in the City of London: your home, a hotel, an office or a station, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At the other end we drop at the official drop-off point at Hickstead, or the meeting corner we agree for showjumping weeks when the roads around the venue are closed. Book the return with it and the driver waits after the final whistle or the encore, so there is no post-event scramble for a car.
Allow 72-104 min for the 45-mile drive. For a fixed start time we build in a buffer and confirm the pick-up time with you.
Hickstead to City of London: the return leg
Hickstead to City of London is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. Pick-ups at an airport, station or venue are tracked and met at the agreed point with waiting time included, so a delay never changes the price. Book both legs together and the return is 1.8 times a single; if plans change, one message moves the booking.
Event days: Hickstead from City of London
For showjumping weeks we plan around the venue, not the postcode: the drop-off point that is actually open, the corner we meet on afterwards, and a departure time that beats the car-park queue. An 8-seater takes the whole group from City of London for little more than two saloons, and a wait-and-return price keeps the same driver on site for the day. Late finishes are normal for us; the fare is the same at 1am.
