Taxi Dibden Purlieu, Southampton

Yes, Dibden Purlieu is a separate village from Hythe even though they share a parish, and we price and run it as its own area. In practice the two are three minutes apart, so a Hythe pickup and a Dibden Purlieu drop carry a small distance supplement rather than a full new fare.

Allow about 18 minutes for the drive north on the M27 to Junction 8. Call 02380 333 000 with your pickup point and we will give you the exact fixed fare, and if you are catching a flight we will track it and adjust the pickup time if the schedule moves.

There is no permanent rank at Dibden Bay, so the usual arrangement is a pre-booked pickup. Give us a time and a landmark such as the sailing club or the main car park, and the driver will be waiting rather than cruising the shoreline road.

Yes, dogs travel free in the back of a saloon or MPV as long as they are secure and controlled, and we cover Emley, Burley and the New Forest roads as a standard day trip. Tell us if your dog needs a crate or a harness bar clip and we will specify the right vehicle.

Yes, we book both legs together to match the appointment time and give you a single return rate. Southampton General and the Princess Anne on the Tremona Road are our most common hospital destinations from this part of the city, and the driver will wait if the clinic runs over.
