Per vehicle, not per person. Tolls, congestion and crossing charges are already inside the price, and it does not change on the day.
By rail you would go High Barnet (the Northern line) across to Staines (National Rail), then a connecting bus at the far end. The catch is that the connecting bus is slow and runs to a seasonal timetable. Door to door by road is about 50 min, or 1h 20m when the roads are full, with no changes, no stairs and no queue at the barrier. If you are travelling light and early, the train usually wins on price. If you are in a group, carrying anything, or leaving after an event, the car wins on everything else.
From the EN4, EN5, N12, N20 streets the route runs via the A1 then the A406, finishing on M25 J11 or J13, then A320 Staines Road. Roughly 27.6 miles, and the timing swings with the hour rather than the route: 50 min clear, 1h 20m loaded.
Any address across Barnet works, EN4, EN5, N12, N20 included, at whatever hour the North London traffic is doing its worst.
The main entrance drop-off, off Staines Road. The single access road off the A320 backs up at opening and again at close, so timed pickups beat joining the queue. Your driver sends the exact standing point and the registration before they set off, so you are not circling a car park looking for a number plate.
Address: Staines Road, Chertsey, KT16 8PN.
THORPE PARK Resort has its own car park, but it fills from mid-morning in school holidays and at weekends, and the approach road backs up before the barrier does. Being dropped at the door and collected at an agreed point removes the whole problem.
Entry is timed, so we work backwards from your slot: 1h 20m for the drive from Barnet plus a margin for the approach road, which is the part that actually runs late.
£125 in a saloon, £155 in a 6-seat MPV and £170 in an 8-seater. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.
Door to door the car is about 50 min off-peak. The rail alternative is High Barnet to Staines plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
The main entrance drop-off, off Staines Road. You get the exact point and the registration by text beforehand.
Yes, and it is the leg worth booking. The driver is in position before you come out instead of you joining the queue that forms the moment it ends.
The driver waits. We watch venue finish times rather than working to a fixed clock, so a late curtain does not leave you stranded or cost you extra.
A 6-seat MPV is £155 and an 8-seater £170. Bigger parties travel in several vehicles routed together.
