Driving to Thorpe Park for Fright Night
Thorpe Park sits on Staines Road in Chertsey, around 20 miles from central London, with fast access from the M25.
Head for M25 junction 11 or 13, then follow the A320 to Thorpe Park.
Use the postcode KT16 8PN for your sat nav, but keep an eye out: some sat navs direct drivers to Norlands Lane instead. Look for the rollercoaster track over the main entrance on Staines Road.
Allow extra time on weekends and during October half term, when traffic on the A320 and around Chertsey builds ahead of opening.
Plan to arrive early, as the park opens at 10am and the scare mazes are at their busiest once darkness falls.
