How it works

🚌  Get on the coach near home then hop onto the Elizabeth Line train at West Drayton. We aim to get you into central London by 9:00AM.

⏰  The times below are when the coach aims to leave each pick up point in the morning and our target arrival time at West Drayton, then the departure time and target arrival times for the evening trip back to Cirencester, Chalford, Stroud and Stonehouse.

👉 Please arrive 5 minutes before the departure time listed. At Chalford and Cirencester the coach will leave as soon as waiting passengers have boarded. 

🎟️ The ticket prices are the same wherever you board or alight. This is not a local stopping service (i.e. not for local travel between Stonehouse & Cirencester).

🅿️ If you are boarding in Cirencester, you can now reserve nearby parking (£2.50/day) when you book. 

🚲🧳We can take bikes and luggage! Please just mention this when prompted during booking.

Prices & practicalities

Our standard day return tickets are £30. Once you're at West Drayton, the TfL price cap gets you anywhere in Zones 1-6 for no more than £16.30. If you commute regularly by train, that should save you thousands a year.

You can get a one-way single ticket for just £25 (Stroud-London, morning) or £20 (London-Stroud, evening). If you want to travel to London one day and back another, book two singles.

When you book your ticket, if you're boarding in Stroud, you can add coffee and pastries for your morning trip. You can also help yourself to snacks and drinks on board, and pay via our online honesty box.

If you are boarding at Cirencester, you can reserve nearby parking at £2.50/day when you book with us. Parking is in the Royal Agricultural University's main Stroud Road car park (map link to entrance). Our nearest stop is about 150m walk through the RAU campus at its Woodland Entrance, where there is a bus stop called 'Royal Agricultural College' (map link).

There's USB-charging, WiFi and a toilet on board. The coach has a mix of table and standard seating, and one wheelchair space. If you booked a table seat and a substitute coach means it is unavailable, let us know and we'll refund the difference in ticket price.

If your plans change, you can reschedule or cancel your ticket up until midnight on the day before you are due to travel. If you cancel, you will receive your refund as a voucher that you can redeem for a future booking within 6 months.

Please arrive at least 5 minutes before your departure time and bring your ticket QR code to scan when you board. It also really helps us if you remember what you ordered for breakfast!

If the onward trains into London are severely disrupted from West Drayton, or returning, we can sometimes provide at additional stop at Uxbridge, on the Piccadilly and Metropolitan Lines. This is not a routine stop. Stay tuned via our Today's Travel WhatsApp (joining link when you book) for any updates.
