Check-in guide for Gatwick Airport: two and a half to three hours for long-haul, two hours for Europe. Add 60 to 95 minutes on the road and a small margin, and the booking page suggests a pickup time for your flight.
Bermondsey runs from the restaurants and galleries of Bermondsey Street and the warehouse flats of Shad Thames to the streets around Southwark Park, with Maltby Street Market under the railway arches and the Jubilee line at its centre.
Shad Thames and the streets by Tower Bridge are narrow, cobbled and partly restricted. Give us your building name and the driver will use the best stopping point.
We also cover nearby London Bridge, Rotherhithe, Borough, Tower Bridge, Old Kent Road, Canada Water, South Bermondsey and Walworth.
Local tip: London Bridge is only one stop away, so for one traveller the train is quick. For families with cases, the car is simpler.
