Hotel Grosvenor
Getting there
- Planes If you’re arriving by private plane, Compton Abbas Airfield is four miles away (www.abbasair.com), and the hotel can arrange pick-ups. Otherwise, Bournemouth Airport’s the closest, less than an hour’s drive away (www.bournemouthairport.com). Heathrow and Gatwick are both a two-hour drive away, along the A303.
- Trains Trains run every hour from London Waterloo to Gillingham (four miles away), or Tisbury (seven) on the Exeter line. The Grosvenor can arrange transfers from either station.
- Automobiles The A303 and the M3 are the hotlines to London – a two-hour drive in good traffic (and the former gives you a glimpse of Stonehenge). Bath (with Bristol beyond) is a 45-minute cruise up the A360.
