Flight

Heathrow & Gatwick Airport

The UK has multiple airports, but Heathrow and Gatwick are the best ones to fly into. Easy to access London and Rochester via public transportation with both of these airports.

Train

Train Transportation

Download the trainline app via your app store to figure out how to travel via train only and to buy tickets. Can also use the trainline website. Fastest way to Rochester, the wedding location, is to take the High Speed South Eastern Train from St. Pancras International to Rochester, travel time is 35 minutes on one train.

Travel Note

Citymapper for travel around London

I cannot recommend this app enough; it saved me my first year in the UK (much better than google maps)! Can easily type in destination and current location to figure out how to walk, public transit, bike, scooter, cab, etc. This app will also show you the fastest way, the cost, map, and travel time.

Shuttle

Shuttle from Ceremony to Reception

June 22, 2024 3:15 pm - 4:00 pm

Our retro London bus will be doing 2 trips after the ceremony, taking guests to the reception at The Vines of Rochester.

Hotel

Travelodge Rochester Hotel

This is our first choice of hotel due to its close proximity to The Vines and it's next to the train station which is always a bonus. It's a 9-minute walk or 3-minute drive to the venue.

Hotel

Bridgewood Manor Hotel & Spa

This is a nice hotel which we've stayed in before and it's an 8-minute drive to The Vines, making it a good option if you can't book a hotel in Rochester.

Hotel

The Golden Lion - JD Wetherspoon

We've chosen this one as it's located on the high street and very close to the The Vines. It's a 7-minute walk to the venue.

Hotel

St George Hotel

Another hotel suggestion as it's only a 4-minute drive or 19-minute walk to The Vines.
