Quick question about Hillingdon Station car park

[Steedie]

Hi all

I'm spending the day in London tomorrow and as usual I plan to park in Hillingdon then get the tube into London, mainly so I don't have to rush for the last train/bus after the show

Trouble is, I've never done this on a Saturday before so I'm not sure how busy it's likely to get

Was wondering if anyone is a regular user of this car park or knows what sort of time I should aim to get there to guarentee a space. I'm hoping with the weather like it's been that might make it a little less busy

Cheers

I would recommend parking at West Ruislip station, as the train takes much less time to get into London. I live about a mile from Hillingdon station and rarely bother with it. Im talking about 20-25mins less time here.

Oh really? Ok mate I'll give that go

Only reason I use Hillingdon is it's so easy to get to from Abingdon, no driving through busy areas or anything

Is Ruislip easy to get too as well? What time would you recommend getting there?

 

[Peter Diffey]

Very easy, its very close to Hillingdon station but its on a different line, what station are you going to in London?

Here it is:

I cant see it being busy at the weekend to be honest

No real station needed, usually get off at Baker street, but as long as I get off in London and can then walk about from there that's fine

Will do that then, thanks a lot for that
