Hospital Taxis in Tunbridge Wells – Tunbridge Wells Hospital & Maidstone Hospital
TW Kings Cars provides 24/7 taxis in Tunbridge Wells for local journeys, station pickups, hospital trips and airport transfers. Book online, call 01892 800234 or message us on WhatsApp at any hour, and pay by card or cash. Airport fares from Tunbridge Wells are fixed before you travel – £65 to Gatwick and £103 to Heathrow – and we track your flight so your driver is ready if you land early or late.
Tunbridge Wells Hospital stands at Pembury, just off the A21 north of the town – it is the main hospital for the whole area, with A&E, maternity and outpatient clinics, and its car parks are busy and not cheap. A pre-booked taxi takes the parking, the walking and the timing out of a hospital trip: we collect from your door, drop you at the right entrance, and come back for you when you are ready.
We also run executive cars and minibuses from 6 to 16 seats, so the same company can look after a solo commuter, a family with luggage or a whole group travelling together.
Local Taxi Service in Tunbridge Wells
Our Tunbridge Wells taxis cover everyday journeys around the town and the villages around it: journeys to and from Tunbridge Wells Hospital at Pembury – outpatient appointments, A&E visits, maternity, visiting hours and discharge pickups, appointments, days out, nights out and school or work runs. Pre-book for a set time, or call when you are ready and we will send the nearest available car.
Hospital journeys are not like other journeys. Appointment letters give you a time you cannot miss; discharges happen when the ward is ready, not when the timetable says; and visiting means travelling at set hours, often in the dark. Tell us the appointment or visiting time when you book and we will work the pickup time backwards from it – and if a clinic runs late, call us and we will move your return.
You can pay by card or cash. Need a child seat or a wheelchair-accessible vehicle? Please ask before you book so we can confirm it for your journey.

Many hospital visitors arrive by train. Tunbridge Wells and High Brooms stations are both about 4 miles from the hospital at Pembury, and Tonbridge station is about 6 miles away. Pre-book and your driver will meet your train and take you straight to the hospital entrance you need.
For the return, book a pickup from the hospital or call us when you are ready – your driver will come to the main entrance or the department you name. If you are travelling with someone who has just been discharged, tell us when you book and we will allow the time and help they need.
