Cheam Village and North Cheam
Cheam has two parts. Cheam Village, in the south, is a historic centre with timber-framed buildings, including the 16th-century Whitehall, a mix of independent shops and the station. North Cheam, around the London Road crossroads, is busier, with larger shops and the main roads towards Morden and Sutton.
From Motspur Park, a car usually comes via Worcester Park and Cheam Common Road, taking around 12 to 18 minutes.
Green spaces and days out
Nonsuch Park, stretching between Cheam and Ewell, is a favourite for walks, with Nonsuch Mansion at its centre. Cheam Park is closer to the Village. If you are taking the dog for a long walk, our pet friendly taxi can drop you at the park gates.
Station and local journeys
Cheam station, on Station Way, has Southern trains towards Sutton, Epsom and London Victoria. For journeys home after an evening out, or trips to the station with luggage, a short taxi ride is handy. Tell us which side of the station you will be on.
The Village has narrow streets and busy junctions at school times. Booking ahead helps us plan your pick-up around them.
Airports and long trips
Cheam is well placed for Gatwick, via the A217 and Reigate Hill. Heathrow is usually reached via the A3. Our hotel transfer taxi is also popular with Cheam families welcoming relatives from abroad.

Regular and school journeys
Families in Cheam often book a school run taxi for a regular weekday pick-up. Older residents book weekly trips to appointments or the shops. Every fare is fixed in advance and paid by card or cash.
Evenings in the Village
Cheam Village has a good spread of restaurants and pubs along the High Street and The Broadway, and plenty of residents walk there on a summer evening. The walk home is less appealing on a cold night or after a late dinner. Book a car for the return when you book your table, and the driver will be outside at the agreed time. For a family celebration with grandparents and children, our 6 seater taxi keeps everyone together, and a child seat can be fitted on request.
