Pickup in Lilliput
Lilliput sits on the northern edge of Poole Harbour, just inland from Sandbanks — sharing the same premium postcode cachet without the peninsula's access complications. Pickup logistics here are simpler than Sandbanks proper: direct access via the Sandbanks Road corridor, and you avoid the chain ferry queues entirely. The name comes from a now-vanished amusement garden, but today Lilliput is a quiet enclave of substantial homes, the Royal Motor Yacht Club and a handful of harbourside restaurants around Salterns Marina. Several properties here sit behind private gates or on unnamed private drives, so a precise meeting point matters — we always confirm the exact access detail in advance. Being just off the Sandbanks Road means a fast escape east via the A35, with no peninsula single-road bottleneck to clear.
What's in the fare
Meet and greet at Cardiff, an hour after landing, drop-off fees and tolls. Child seats if you asked. The number on this page is the number you pay from the core towns — extras only if you add stops or land well outside that hour.
