Turlin Moor to Gatwick Airport

About the Turlin Moor to Gatwick transfer

The run from Turlin Moor to Gatwick Airport is around 103 miles, typically taking 114 minutes off-peak, door-to-door. Both terminals (North and South) covered. Driver meets you in Arrivals with a name board; live flight tracking means we adjust for early or delayed landings.

Pickup in Turlin Moor

For the Gatwick run: Turlin Moor is the estate on the western arm of the Hamworthy peninsula, off Turlin Road and toward Lake. It is not Hamworthy Park and it is not Rockley, though all three share the same bridge problem: Twin Sails and Poole Bridge lift on a daytime schedule, so a midday airport run can sit at the water while a 5am run sails through. We treat Turlin Moor pickups like Hamworthy for timing, then route via Blandford Road once we are off the peninsula. The roads are residential and easy; the mistake is quoting a Poole Quay time from here. If you are at Rockley Park, say Rockley — that is a different pin on the same peninsula.

Journey time — when to leave

Planning your Turlin Moor to Gatwick trip

The Turlin Moor to Gatwick run is 103 miles and around 114 minutes off-peak. For London airports the M25 is the main variable: Friday afternoons, Sunday evenings and school-holiday start days can add 30-45 minutes. We always recommend a pickup time when you book, factoring in the day of the week and current M25 conditions. Turlin Moor pickups sit on the harbour side of Twin Sails and Poole Bridge, which lift on a daytime schedule — early-morning pickups (before 6am) avoid the lifts entirely. Pickup: Same bridge-lift rule as Hamworthy: before about 6am is clear. Pin Turlin Moor, Lake or Rockley separately — they are not the same driveway.

The route

From Turlin Moor we take the A31 onto the M27, with the usual build-up around Cadnam, then the M3 and the M25 to Gatwick. Your driver confirms the terminal from the booking, not from guesswork.

Tips for this journey

• Gatwick has two terminals (North and South) connected by a free shuttle — confirm which one on your boarding pass before the Turlin Moor pickup.
• Pack a phone charger for the long run from Turlin Moor — a flat phone at Gatwick drop-off is the most common travel hiccup.
• Combining Gatwick with a cruise from Poole? Book the Turlin Moor pickup around the bridge lift schedule — we'll plan it.
• Booking your Turlin Moor → Gatwick return at the same time as your outbound usually saves money and guarantees your return driver knows your address.
