Why choose a chauffeur to Farncombe Estate?
Let’s be honest. When you’re planning a weekend at a place like The Fish, the last thing you want is to start it by wrestling luggage onto a train or waiting 40 minutes for a taxi that never shows. Farncombe might feel delightfully remote, but that shouldn’t mean stressful travel. A private chauffeur lets you skip the guesswork – and arrive relaxed, not rattled.
Travel the OUNO way instead:
- Chauffeur pickup from your home, hotel, or Heathrow
- Luxury Mercedes S-Class, V-Class or electric EQS options
- Fixed fare. No cancellations. No surge pricing.
- Your driver waits nearby for spontaneous plans
This isn’t Uber. This is your luxury chauffeur service – with comfort and consistency built in.
What makes The Fish Hotel & Farncombe Estate special?
Tucked into the northern edge of the Cotswolds, Farncombe Estate is a 400-acre haven for nature-lovers, foodies, and those who prefer countryside calm with a side of cool.
At the heart sits The Fish Hotel – a design-led retreat that feels more boutique than B&B:
- Stylish Scandi-inspired rooms, hillside lodges, and treehouses
- Outdoor hot tubs. Fire pits. Board games by the bar.
- On-site experiences from archery to Segway safaris
- Pet-friendly rooms (yes, your dog gets its own welcome pack)
The vibe? Think Soho Farmhouse meets luxury treehouse break – casual, creative, and quietly confident.
How to get from London to The Fish Hotel
Getting to the Cotswolds should be part of the pleasure—not a puzzle. And yet, when you try to piece together a train, a rural taxi, and a timetable that doesn’t stress you out, things can quickly unravel. The Fish Hotel may be just under two hours from London, but how you choose to travel makes all the difference.
Here’s how your options compare:
Train + Taxi
- Paddington → Moreton-in-Marsh (1h35m)
- Then a taxi (if one’s available) for 25–35 mins
- Unreliable return options. Poor phone signal. No thanks.
Driving Yourself
- ~2 hours via the M40 and A44
- You’ll need to navigate country lanes and parking
OUNO Chauffeur
- From ~£225 fixed fare
- Chauffeur meets you anywhere in London
- Luggage handled. Route optimised. You relax.
