Pick-up in Dover, drop-off at Burghley Horse Trials
Pick-up is at your door anywhere in Dover or the Kent towns and villages around it, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At Burghley Horse Trials we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for the horse trials when the roads around the venue are closed.
At 148 miles this is a 3.5-5.0 hrs drive in normal conditions. Event-day queues are the driver’s problem, not yours: the fare is fixed either way.
Burghley Horse Trials to Dover: the journey home
Burghley Horse Trials to Dover is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. Book both legs together and the driver waits at the agreed meeting point at the end of the horse trials, however late it runs; the driver takes you back to your door in Dover. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.

Event days at Burghley Horse Trials
For the horse trials 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 Dover 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.
