GETTING
THERE
Flights
London Gatwick airport is a 20 minute drive away and there are regular EasyJet flights from both Geneva and Basel Airports. A return flight costs roughly 125 CHF
Transportation
Taxis are avaliable to and from the airport and around East Grinstead, please see additional information for taxi contact details. Public transport is not great and if you are staying for a few days we'd strongly recommend hiring a car which you can do for about 50 CHF per day.
Accommodation
There is a range of accommodation available nearby. We are a 50 minute train ride from London (East Grinstead station - London Victoria) so would recommend, if you're coming just for the wedding, that you stay locally. Please see links to a selection of recommendations below.
