Taxis in Ashurst
Pre-booked taxis from Ashurst to the local stations, Tunbridge Wells, Tunbridge Wells Hospital and every London airport. Licensed local drivers and a fixed price agreed when you book, 24 hours a day.
Your local taxi in Ashurst
Ashurst is a small Kent village about 5 miles west of Tunbridge Wells, on the A264 close to the River Medway. The river marks the county boundary here, so the houses on the far bank around Blackham are in East Sussex. It has its own church, St Martin of Tours, and its own railway station. We collect from the A264, the station approach, the homes around the church and the farms and lanes either side of the border.
Your fare is a fixed figure agreed at the time of booking rather than a meter reading. Ashurst is outside the Tunbridge Wells fare area, so when a journey both begins and ends outside Tunbridge Wells, that figure covers the miles to reach you and back. To get a price, phone 01892 888888, send a WhatsApp, or fill in our online quote form.
- Ashurst station pickups at the front of the station, handy after a late train from London Bridge.
- Hever Castle and Penshurst Place are both within reach for visitors arriving by train.
- Narrow, unlit lanes, so a house name or landmark helps the driver find you first time.
- Fixed prices from outside town: Ashurst journeys are quoted for your address before you travel.
Ashurst on the border: one station, the A264 and not much else
Ashurst station sits just off the A264 on the Uckfield line, with Southern trains north towards Oxted and London Bridge and south to Eridge and Crowborough. The A264 runs east through Langton Green into Tunbridge Wells and west towards East Grinstead. Buses are thin, so most people book us for the station, town and airports.
Ashurst station
We collect from the front of the station, which suits anyone arriving from London Bridge late or carrying luggage up the hill.
Into Tunbridge Wells
East along the A264 through Langton Green to the town centre or Tunbridge Wells station, for work, shopping or a meal out, with a car booked for the ride home.
Hever Castle
A few miles north, towards Hever and Edenbridge. Visitors arriving by train can book a car between Ashurst station and the castle rather than changing to another station.
Penshurst and Fordcombe
Short country runs north to Fordcombe and Penshurst, for Penshurst Place, family visits and village events. The lanes between are narrow and unlit, so a booked car home after an evening out makes sense.
St Martin of Tours church
For weddings and services at the village church we can arrange wedding cars, executive cars for family, or an 8-seater for guests travelling from the station or a hotel.
Tonbridge
Out through Penshurst or via Tunbridge Wells to Tonbridge for its mainline station, schools and shops. Our Tonbridge page covers journeys on that side of the borough in more detail.
