What to expect
Door to door, one fixed price.
Travelling to South Lodge, your driver meets you on the concourse at Paddington Station with a name board, your train tracked. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: the lodge gates open onto a beech-lined drive — cars deliver to the porte-cochère, and wedding-day fleets stage by the walled garden.
Every charge included
Tolls — plus the Congestion Charge and ULEZ where the route applies — sit inside the quoted fare.
Both directions, one price
South Lodge to Paddington Station or the reverse — the fixed fare from £139 holds either way.
Luggage handled
Between the South Lodge lobby and the concourse, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
The fleet
South Lodge to Paddington Station from £139.
Six classes, one standard of care. Saloon, one way, off-peak. Rush hour, nights (10pm–6am) and bank holidays cost more; the return leg is 5% off when booked together — your quote shows the exact price before you book. Once you book, the price never changes.
