How
to Get There:
By
car, Thorpe is 20 miles from London, and is signposted from the
Junctions 11 and 13 of the M25 (NOT accessible from Junction
12). Follow signs on the A320 from there. There are trains from
Reading, Guildford and London Waterloo to Staines, and a shuttle
bus can take you from there - they run every 30 minutes. Or,
you can arrive at Chertsey Station on some trains, and take a
5 minute ride on a bus to Thorpe.
Or,
solely by bus, you can take the 436/437/426 from Woking, the
551 from Staines or the 561 from Chobham (one way). Lastly, there's
a Coach Service from Victoria to Staines. You can plan your car
journey using the
RAC Route Planner.
