Flimwell is technically part of the civil parish of Ticehurst itself — not a separate parish — sitting in postcode district TN5, Rother district, about 2 miles from Ticehurst village. It's a genuine crossroads village, at the junction of the A21 with the A268 and B2087, close to the Kent border and within the High Weald AONB, near Bewl Water and Bedgebury Pinetum.
From Flimwell it's about 20 minutes to Tunbridge Wells, 30 minutes to Hastings, and around 1.5 hours up the A21 to London — good access in every direction, which is exactly why the crossroads position works well for us.
At least 48 hours for flights or peak dates; same-day is often fine for local trips.
Rarely — rideshare coverage is patchy here, so our fixed, pre-agreed fare is usually more reliable.
From Flimwell, we run fixed-price transfers to Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted, Luton and London City.
