Book NowTicehurst is a small village in the Rother district of East Sussex, within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and one of the most transport-limited villages we cover — there's no railway station in the village itself, the bus service between some neighbouring villages can run as little as every four hours, and Uber coverage here is effectively non-existent. That isn't a gap we try to talk around, it's exactly why a local taxi matters here. The nearest stations are Wadhurst, about 3 miles north-west, and Etchingham, about 3 miles east, both on the Hastings line. Pashley Manor Gardens, on the B2099 within the parish, and Dale Hill Hotel & Golf Club, just outside the village, both bring visitors who need a pre-booked car to complete their journey from either station.
Uber coverage in Ticehurst is effectively non-existent — it's one of the most transport-limited villages we cover, with no railway station in the village and an infrequent bus service to neighbouring villages. A pre-booked local taxi is the practical way to travel here, not just an alternative to Uber.
Both stations are about 3 miles from Ticehurst, and neither has a taxi rank, so pre-booking is the reliable way to make the connection in either direction. Pashley Manor Gardens' own visitor information gives visitors exactly this advice — call or WhatsApp us with your train time and we'll be waiting.
Ticehurst is a genuinely rural village, and much of our work here is the station-hop to Wadhurst or Etchingham, or a run out to Pashley Manor Gardens and Dale Hill Hotel & Golf Club, both just outside the village. The bus between Ticehurst and some neighbouring villages runs as infrequently as every four hours, so for anyone without a car, a local taxi isn't a luxury — it's the practical way to get around.
Tipping isn't required or expected for taxis in the UK the way it can be in some countries — most passengers round up the fare or add a small amount for good service, but there's no fixed percentage and drivers won't expect it. If you'd like to tip, cash handed directly to the driver is the simplest way; it's entirely up to you.

We agree a fixed price with you before you travel, so any applicable airport charges are already factored in — no meter, no surprises. Worth knowing: as of September 2026, Gatwick's own forecourt drop-off charge is a minimum of £10 for the first 10 minutes, up from £7 in January 2026 — that's separate from our fare and only applies if you're being met by someone driving in themselves.
Ticehurst is around 38 to 42 miles from Gatwick Airport, usually a 55 to 65 minute drive via the A21 north. We don't publish one fixed figure for this route, since traffic and your exact pickup point can vary it slightly, but we'll always agree a fixed fare with you before you travel, so there's no meter and no surprise at the airport.
