Transport to Langton House

Windsor is extremely convenient for Heathrow, M4, M3 and M25, with easy access
to London via public transport, having two mainline train stations serving London Waterloo
and London Paddington stations, as well as direct bus services to Heathrow and London.
We always recommend to our guests to stay in Windsor and travel by train into London to explore the City.
A cheaper and far more relaxing option.

Taxi From Heathrow
The easiest way to reach Windsor from Heathrow is by taxi. London black cabs are
available from outside the terminal building but these will cost in excess of
£50 for the trip. The method I personally use is to phone a Windsor local taxi
company called "Five Star". Phone from the arrivals hall whilst waiting for your
luggage to arrive, they will then meet you outside the terminal building; cost
for the trip is approximately £16.00 (price in year 2005). Phone them on 01753
858888 and they will describe where to meet the taxi. They are by far the most
reliable taxi company in Windsor and have never (yet) let me, or any of my
guests down. Distance from Heathrow to Windsor 12 miles approx. Time for this
journey is dependant on traffic, but can be 20 minutes to 45 minutes in rush
hour.

Taxi is approx £48.00 one-way with local 5 Star taxi.
Train is easy, Gatwick change at Clapham Junction then direct into Windsor and Eton Riverside about 1 hour 30 minutes.
Bus - To Heathrow then connect with coach to Gatwick, about 2 hours.
