Local knowledge
The tube here is Marylebone — the Bakerloo line. Handy travelling light; with luggage bound for Kensington, the door-to-door car earns its place.
The Kensington road runs about 10–20 min from Marylebone. Your driver reads the live traffic and, with the train tracked, times the pickup to your real arrival.
Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and vetted — name, photo and number sent before the day.
Your chauffeur waits on the concourse at Marylebone with a name board and helps with the luggage before the direct run to Kensington. Specifically, the Melcombe Place forecourt.
This is a journey decided before you arrive: whether the driver watched the train, whether the price moved, and whether anyone is standing on the concourse at Marylebone when you come off. On the Kensington run we settle all three in advance — the train tracked, the fare from £47 fixed, and a named chauffeur waiting with a board.
The Melcombe Place forecourt. Reckon on 10–20 min for the drive, with 15 minutes of complimentary waiting so a slow arrival never costs you the car. Every toll, and the London charges where they apply, sits inside the fare — nothing to settle at the kerb.
