TRANSPORT AND DIRECTIONS
TO BOWER HOUSE
Public transport (mass transit) is the most convenient way to travel in and around London in terms of speed and economy, since traffic here is very congested. We would kindly ask the saints to make their own way from the airports to Bower House or to their hospitality rather than requesting collection from the airport. Please read below for details of public transport.
Please do not ask to be collected from the airport. Heathrow and Gatwick airports are a 3-4 hour round trip drive from Bower House, depending on traffic; Luton and Stansted airports 2-3 hours. Some flights to Luton and Stansted arrive too late in the day to reach London destinations by public transport. Please make sure your flight arrival time allows you to reach your destination.
