Travel from Bristol to Bradford-on-Avon — the honey-stone town on the Kennet & Avon Canal — by private car: one driver, one fixed price, door to door. The 27 miles journey via the A4, A363 takes around 41min, collected from any Bristol address at the time you choose.

Bradford-on-Avon is a honey-stone town of weavers’ cottages stacked above the Avon, with a Saxon church and a medieval tithe barn on the Kennet & Avon Canal. A private intercity transfer between Bristol and Bradford-on-Avon replaces the connection-hopping of public transport with a single seamless drive. Your BristolRide driver collects you at your door and delivers you to the exact address — ideal for luggage, families, meetings and groups. Bradford-on-Avon — the honey-stone town on the Kennet & Avon Canal — is 27 miles out via the A4, in Wiltshire, close enough that a private car often beats the combined time of a taxi to the station, the wait for a train, and a taxi at the other end.

The drive between Bristol and Bradford-on-Avon runs via the A4, A363 and takes around 41min in normal traffic, covering the real 27 miles road distance rather than a straight-line guess. There are no changes and no stations — your route is door to door, and the fixed price is agreed before you travel, whether you're headed into the centre of Bradford-on-Avon or further out in Wiltshire.
