How the day runs

Collection is from your front door in Croydon. You travel in a luxury people-carrier for families and groups. Leaving Croydon, the car picks up the A236 and keeps to the main roads. Drop-off at All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club follows the organisers' published arrangements for the day. Through the afternoon the car is parked close by, not sent away. After the last of the day, it is about 24 minutes back to Croydon.
