TW Kings Cars runs pre-booked airport taxis from Linton to every London airport, door to door, 24 hours a day. We pick up from anywhere in the area — Linton Hill along the A229, Heath Road on the B2163, around St Nicholas Church and The Bull Inn, and the lanes out towards Coxheath, Loose and Chart Sutton — and take you straight to your terminal. No meter, no surge pricing: your fare is fixed when you book, and it is the price you pay.
Linton stands on the Greensand ridge slope south of Maidstone, the A229 running straight through it as Linton Hill. Linton Park — the Grade I-listed 1730 mansion above the village — and the 13th-century church of St Nicholas give it its landmarks, and Cornwallis Academy serves the families of Linton and Coxheath.
A saloon car from Linton to Gatwick Airport is a fixed £95 and to Heathrow Airport a fixed £125. We also run fixed fares to London City (£110), Stansted (£140) and Luton (£165) — the full table for every airport and vehicle is below. Gatwick is about 52 miles from Linton and the drive takes around 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 35 minutes in normal traffic; Heathrow is about 73 miles and takes around 2 hours to 2 hours 20 minutes depending on the M25. When you book, we agree a pickup time that gets you to the terminal with time to spare.
Coming home, we track your flight. If your plane is delayed, your driver simply adjusts — TW Kings Cars makes no additional charge for flight delays — and will text or call you on arrival and help with your luggage. All our drivers are licensed by the local council and DBS checked.

Travelling as a group? Our 8-seater minibuses run the same fixed fares from Linton — £152 to Gatwick, £200 to Heathrow, £176 to London City, £224 to Stansted and £264 to Luton — for family holidays, golf trips, wedding parties and group airport runs where two cars would cost more and arrive separately. Everyone travels together, with room for cases, buggies and sports bags. Tell us your passenger numbers and luggage when you book and we will send the right vehicle.
Gatwick and Heathrow are the airports most Linton passengers use, but we run every London airport at a fixed fare. London City (£110 saloon) is the business traveller's choice — a small Docklands terminal, fast to clear, and handy for Canary Wharf and the City. Stansted (£140 saloon) serves the low-cost European routes; it is a long run round the M25 and up the M11, so we agree a generous pickup time when you book. Luton (£165 saloon) is the same story in the other direction — a fixed fare agreed up front, a driver who knows the M25/M1 pattern, and no meter ticking in traffic. Whichever airport you are flying from, the price you are quoted is the price you pay.
Linton has no station of its own — Maidstone East is about 4 miles north and Marden about 4 miles south. From either, no train runs directly to an airport: Gatwick means changes at Tonbridge, Heathrow means crossing London, and you still need a car at both ends of the rail journey. A fixed-fare taxi from your door in Linton goes straight to the terminal, at whatever hour your flight needs. For London day trips we also run pickups and drop-offs at Maidstone and Marden stations.
