Travel

Reccomendations for best airports to fly into from the US, and a range of hotels in the Stamford area. We recommend booking your hotel as soon as possible. Although Stamford is small, it is a very popular tourist and wedding destination and hotels book quickly. It's also a good idea to check airbnb and booking.com yourselves to see all the available options. We are providing transport to the ceremony from The William Cecil at Stamford. We recommend using this as there is very little parking at the ceremony venue. Please arrive at the William Cecil at 11.45AM to ensure you don't miss the transport. You will need to arrange transport from the venue back to hotels after the reception - Uber is not a thing in Stamford! Check below for a number of taxi companies local to the area.

Probably the best airport to fly into in terms of ease of getting to our area. There is a direct train from Gatwick Airport to Peterborough, which is only 15-20 minutes away from Stamford by car or train.
