Easy to find at the airport (Terminal 3) when in a hurry, and only 15 minutes into Central London. I made my 22:03 train to Taunton after my plane landed at 20:40, with at least 15 minutes to spare. Not at all bad!

Quick, easy, and booking tickets can be done on the train. It is a great service and I love the fact that it is door-to-door. Quite lovely after long international flights.
