Local knowledge: getting around Wisley
The garden is reached from the A3 at the Wisley interchange, with the entrance and car parks on Wisley Lane. Southbound access is straightforward; northbound traffic has to come off and loop back, which catches out first-time visitors. On flower show weekends and bank holidays the queue for the car park can extend back towards the main road, so a drop-off at the entrance saves a good deal of time.
Main roads
- A3 Wisley interchange
- M25 Junction 10
- Wisley Lane
- B2039 Ockham Lane
- A245 Byfleet Road
Rail and public transport
There is no station at Wisley. West Byfleet is the nearest at around 3 miles, with Woking a little further and better connected – roughly 25 minutes from Waterloo. Both are short fixed-price runs from the garden, which is how most visitors arriving by train complete the journey.

How long does it take from Gatwick to Wisley?

Can you drop us at the garden entrance?
Yes. We drop directly at the visitor entrance on Wisley Lane rather than in the car park, which saves the walk and the queue on busy weekends. Tell us your return time when you book and your driver will meet you at the same point.
Can you take a group or garden society to Wisley?
Yes. We run people carriers and larger vehicles for groups, and can keep several cars together so a party arrives at the same time. Let us know the group size when you request a quote.

What happens if my flight is delayed?
Nothing changes for you. Your driver monitors the flight and adjusts the pickup time to the actual landing time, so you are met when you arrive rather than charged for waiting. This applies to every airport transfer we run to Wisley.
