Knole House Taxi & Airport Transfers

Knole is one of England's largest houses, set in a 1,000-acre deer park on the edge of Sevenoaks. The former archbishop's palace and Sackville family seat is a National Trust showpiece a few minutes' walk from Sevenoaks town centre — and with junction 5 of the M25 close by, it is an easy private-car trip from London, Gatwick or Heathrow, whether for a day visit, a wedding or a stay in Sevenoaks.

RushXO is a TfL-licensed private hire operator providing fixed-price, no-surge taxis and executive cars across Knole House, Sevenoaks and the rest of south-east London and Kent. Every journey is quoted in full before you travel — airport transfers, station runs, cruise and ferry ports, business travel and days out — with professional drivers, flight tracking and 24-hour availability, 365 days a year.

Local knowledge: getting around Knole House

Knole's entrance is off Sevenoaks High Street opposite St Nicholas Church, with a drive through the deer park to the house. From central London the journey is around 26 miles — the A21 or A20 to the M25 and down the A21 — in roughly 50–70 minutes; Gatwick is about 20 miles via the M25 and M23, often under 40 minutes. Sevenoaks station, a mile north of the town, has fast trains to London Bridge in about half an hour, and we collect from it for Knole visitors and Sevenoaks residents alike.

Rail and public transport

Sevenoaks has Southeastern and Thameslink trains to London Bridge, Charing Cross and Blackfriars in around 30–35 minutes; Bat & Ball and Otford are smaller nearby stations. Trains are great for a quick trip into town, but for early flights, late arrivals, luggage, children or a group travelling together, a pre-booked fixed-price car from your door in Knole House is usually quicker, simpler and — for two or more people — often no more expensive.
