C Line Cars Goudhurst Taxis has been the village's local taxi service for 20 years, running local journeys, station transfers, and fixed-price airport runs to Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted, Luton and London City. Two decades on these roads means we know Goudhurst the way a neighbour does, not the way a booking app does.
Low-commitment — call, WhatsApp, or fill in the form and we'll confirm your price before anything is booked.
Get a QuotePeople book us because of the village, not just from it — the steep pull up to St Mary's Church on a Saturday afternoon when the tower's open, a wedding or private function at Finchcocks just outside the village, a family day out at Bedgebury National Pinetum and Forest along the B2079, or simply getting down the High Street past the pond to the Star and Eagle without hunting for parking. Goudhurst sits at the crossroads of the A262 and B2079, in the TN17 postcode, with Kilndown, Curtisden Green and Iden Green all within a couple of miles and Horsmonden and Lamberhurst a short run further out. We cover all of it — village centre, the hamlets around the parish, and the school run to Goudhurst & Kilndown CofE Primary — with the same fixed-price approach whether you're going half a mile down Back Lane or two hours to Heathrow.
From £80 plus the £5 pick-up charge, around 50-60 minutes from Goudhurst.
Yes — Kilndown, Curtisden Green and Iden Green are all part of our regular run area.

years serving Goudhurst
A taxi from Goudhurst to Gatwick Airport starts from £80, plus a £5 pick-up and drop-off charge. The journey takes around 50-60 minutes depending on traffic on the A21 and M23. You can book by phone, WhatsApp, or through our online quote form, and the price is agreed before you travel.
A taxi from Goudhurst to Heathrow starts from £125, plus a £5 pick-up and drop-off charge. It's a longer run than Gatwick, usually 90 minutes to two hours depending on the M25, so we always recommend booking with plenty of notice for early morning or peak-time flights.
Goudhurst doesn't have a manned taxi rank on the High Street, so taxis here work on a phone and pre-booking basis rather than passing trade. Call or WhatsApp us and we'll send a car to you, whether you're near the village pond, St Mary's Church, or out towards Kilndown.
You can book by calling or WhatsApping 07741041293, or by filling in the online booking form on this page with your pick-up point, destination, and travel time. For airport runs we recommend booking at least 24 hours ahead; local trips can usually be arranged same-day.
Yes, alongside Goudhurst itself we regularly cover Kilndown, Curtisden Green, Iden Green, Horsmonden and Lamberhurst. If you're just outside the village and unsure whether you're in our normal run area, call us and we'll confirm before you book.
For Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted or Luton we recommend booking at least 24-48 hours in advance, especially for early morning starts or school holiday periods when demand is higher. Last-minute bookings are often possible, but advance booking guarantees your preferred pick-up time.
Yes, Tunbridge Wells is around 20-25 minutes from Goudhurst and one of our most regular runs, connecting you to the mainline service into London. We also cover Marden and Staplehurst stations if either suits your onward journey better.
We run flexible hours across the week, including evening and late pick-ups from the Star and Eagle, events at Finchcocks, or a night out further afield. Let us know your expected return time when you book, especially for late or early-morning journeys, so we can confirm availability.
Yes, we regularly collect from Bedgebury National Pinetum and Bedgebury Forest, just south of Goudhurst off the B2079. It's a popular spot for family days out and mountain biking, and a taxi back to Goudhurst, Kilndown or Cranbrook avoids the car park queues at closing time.
Payment is arranged directly with your driver, with cash accepted as standard and card or bank transfer available by prior arrangement. Just confirm your preferred method when you book so everything is sorted before the driver arrives.
Alongside Goudhurst village itself, we regularly cover Kilndown, Curtisden Green and Iden Green within the parish, and run out further to neighbouring villages including:
