Pickup in Branksome Park

For the Heathrow run: Branksome Park is a private wooded estate straddling the Poole/Bournemouth border, known for its pine trees and substantial individual houses. The pine-lined avenues are easy to navigate but the estate is large, so an exact pickup address is essential — most clients are a 3-5 minute drive from the nearest main road. Several of the roads here share names with neighbouring streets, which catches out drivers relying on sat-nav alone; our drivers know the difference between the Branksome Park avenues and confirm the precise pin the night before. The estate's position straddling two council areas means it benefits from both the A35 westbound and the A338 eastbound, giving flexible routing depending on which airport you're heading to.

Tips for this journey

• Flying from Heathrow after a Branksome Park pickup? Confirm your terminal 24 hours before — airlines occasionally move terminals.
