The A-Z of things to know about your Bed & Breakfast stay:

Heathrow - Although Heathrow is a mere 17 miles away, (drive South on the M25 and follow signs to Terminals 1-5), it can take between 25 minutes and 2 hours to get there – the traffic is notorious and difficult to predict, so always allow for at least an hour. Visit: www.heathrowairport.com for more information.

Luton - Is just 30 minutes away, drive North on the M25, leave at Junction 21 for the M1 and follow signs to Luton Airport.

Gatwick - Follow the M25 South. Leave the M25 at Junction 7, then join the M23 motorway. Leave the M23 at Junction 9 and then follow signs to Gatwick North or South Terminals.

Alternatively there are regular trains from Watford Junction (a 10 minute taxi ride from Loudwater Farm) bound for Gatwick, Luton and Heathrow. For train timetables visit: www.nationalrail.co.uk

Airport Bus: If you are travelling by air, there is a useful bus service that goes from Heathrow Airport to Rickmansworth Station, approx once per hour – the No 724 coach (Green Line) – for more details visit: www.greenline.co.uk
