Great Missenden is home

Gilberts isn't just a taxi firm that covers Great Missenden — we're based here, at 95 High Street, a few doors from where visitors queue for the Roald Dahl Museum. When you book with us, the car often starts its journey from the same street you live on.

The village punches well above its weight: the Chiltern Railways station gets you to Marylebone in around 45 minutes, the Roald Dahl Museum pulls in families from across the country, and the surrounding Chiltern Hills make it a destination in its own right. We drive to and from all of it, every day.

Our patch runs well beyond the high street — Prestwood, South Heath, Ballinger, The Lee, Lee Common, Little Kingshill, Great Kingshill and Hyde End are all everyday territory. If you live down a lane the sat-nav doubts, our drivers have almost certainly found it before.
