How Far Is One Love One Sun from Lewes and What Does the Taxi Cost?

Bentley Estate in Halland sits 7 miles from Lewes town centre. AZ Taxis Lewes drivers know the estate well. The team runs regular transfers to Bentley Wildfowl and Motor Museum, which shares the same site, so drivers already know the fastest approach routes, the entrance points, and the best post-event pickup locations on and around the estate.

The journey takes around 15 to 20 minutes in normal conditions. On festival arrival and departure days allow a little extra time as the B2192 through Halland gets busier when large events are on. AZ Taxis Lewes fares to the festival are fixed at the time of booking with no extra charges on the night.

Day Visitors and Campers Which AZ Taxis Lewes Service Works Best

One Love One Sun attracts two kinds of attendees. Day visitors arrive on Friday or Saturday morning and want a return taxi home at the end of the night. Campers pitch up for the full weekend and need a return taxi on Sunday morning when the site closes at midday. AZ Taxis Lewes covers both.

Day visitor transfers. Book an outward taxi to Bentley Estate and a return taxi at the end of the night. Friday and Saturday evening returns will be in demand after midnight when both stages finish. Book the return transfer at the same time as the outward journey so your driver is confirmed for the end of the night.

Camper drop-off on Friday or Saturday. AZ Taxis Lewes drops you and your camping kit at the festival entrance. No need to load a car with tent poles, sleeping bags and bags and then worry about parking. Tell the team what you are bringing and they will confirm the right vehicle.

Camper collection on Sunday. Camping runs until midday on Sunday 23 August. AZ Taxis Lewes covers Sunday morning collections from Bentley Estate for campers heading home after the weekend. Book this in advance rather than trying to arrange it on Sunday morning when demand is highest.

Getting to One Love One Sun from Gatwick Airport

Some festival-goers travel to East Sussex specifically for One Love One Sun, particularly international reggae and sound system fans flying into Gatwick for the weekend. Gatwick Airport is 29 miles from Lewes and approximately 31 miles from Bentley Estate, making it the nearest major airport for festival visitors arriving by air.

AZ Taxis Lewes covers Gatwick airport transfers seven days a week with meet and greet in the arrivals hall, real-time flight monitoring, and a fixed fare confirmed at the time of booking. For festival visitors landing at Gatwick on Thursday evening or Friday morning and heading straight to the site, AZ Taxis Lewes arranges the full journey from the terminal to the Bentley Estate festival entrance.

For the return journey after the festival, the same Gatwick airport taxi service covers Sunday afternoon and evening transfers from Lewes or directly from Bentley Estate back to the airport for departing flights.
