Whether it’s a short trip into town or a long journey, I’ll ensure you travel in comfort and safety. Just call +44 7788 727616 and I’ll be on my way.
Perham Down might feel off the beaten track, but to me, it’s right at home. I understand that out here, we don’t have the luxury of frequent buses or nearby train stations That’s why I make it a point to be available for residents of Perham Down as much as possible. Need to get to Tidworth Camp or Ludgershall for an errand? I can typically be at your door in minutes, since I’m often nearby serving the garrison villages. A1 Stephens Taxi treats Perham Down with the same priority as Tidworth town itself. You’re not an afterthought – you’re part of our community, and I’m here to ensure you’re never stranded.
Let me paint a picture: It’s a chilly morning in Perham Down, and you have an early appointment in Salisbury. There’s no public transport at that hour. Who do you call? A1 Stephens Taxi, and I’ll be there with a warm car and a friendly hello. Or maybe it’s a Sunday afternoon and you realize you’re out of groceries – I’ll gladly take you over to the Tesco or Co-op and even help load your bags. Basically, think of me as a helpful neighbor with a car, ready to assist whenever you need to get from A to B.
New housing blocks at Swinton Barracks in Perham Down – part of our growing community
Despite Perham Down’s size, the needs of its residents are just as varied as anywhere else. That’s why I offer a full range of taxi services:
I see myself as more than just a taxi driver; I’m a community supporter. Over time, I’ve gotten to know many Perham Down residents by name. I’ve heard about the latest news on base, celebrated when families reunited after deployment, and even volunteered to help out during community events (like offering discounted rides during the summer fair or army family days). During the snowy winter days when driving can be hazardous, I’ve been there to help ferry people when their own cars couldn’t make it out of the estate. I have a reliable vehicle suited to various conditions, and I drive with extra caution when the weather turns. If you’re new to Perham Down (perhaps newly posted to the barracks), welcome! I know it can be a bit daunting not knowing the area. Consider me your go-to for getting around. Need to find the nearest big supermarket or the fastest route to the A303? Just ask – I’m happy to guide you or simply take you there. Likewise, for those without a personal car, I understand how vital a taxi service is in a spot like this. I’ve given lifts for weekly shopping trips, social visits, and everything in between. Some of my Perham Down clients joke that I’m like their personal chauffeur – which I take as a compliment! It means I’ve made their life here easier, and that’s exactly what I strive to do.
Requesting a taxi in Perham Down is straightforward. Call or text +44 7788 727616 whenever you need a ride.Let me know your name, address (or landmark – I know the area well enough that you can say “the housing by the barracks” or a street name and I’ll find it), and your destination. I’ll give you an estimated arrival time – usually very quick. For early morning or late-night trips, it’s best to book in advance if you can. For example, if you know you have a 6 AM train from Grateley or Andover, drop me a message the day before so I can set my alarm and be there bright and early. However, if it’s a more spontaneous need (maybe you just realized you need a ride home from a friend’s barbecue in the evening), still reach out – if I’m available, I will absolutely come get you. Keep my number handy in your phone. You never know when plans change or when you could use a reliable ride. I take pride in being the call taxi Perham Down residents trust when something comes up. So, whether it’s a one-off trip or you anticipate needing regular rides (some of my customers have weekly bookings with me), I’m ready to help. It’s amazing how much difference a simple taxi ride can make – turning what could be a stressful travel situation into a pleasant journey. Your comfort, safety, and satisfaction are my top priorities. I look forward to serving you and showing that even in a small place like Perham Down, you can enjoy big, top-notch taxi service.
Q: Is taxi service really available in Perham Down? I thought it was too small!
Yes, absolutely! A1 Stephens Taxi proudly serves Perham Down.I understand it’s a small community, but I am often in the area since it’s close to Tidworth and Ludgershall where I get many fares. When you call, I consider Perham Down just as important as any town. I’ll come right to your door. You won’t be told “sorry, we don’t go there” – I will go wherever I’m needed in our community.
Q: Can you pick up or drop off at Swinton Barracks (Perham Down camp)?
Certainly. I regularly pick up soldiers and their family members from Swinton Barracks. If you’re on base, often I can meet you at the main gate (just for ease of access) unless you can escort me in or have clearance for me to enter. We can coordinate whatever works best – I’m familiar with the security process. Similarly, if you need to get from Perham Down to another base like Bulford or Larkhill, I can take you there as well.
Q: How quickly can I get a taxi in Perham Down?
Typically pretty quickly. Because I’m local , I’m often only 10-15 minutes away (if not closer). For example, if I’m finishing a fare in Tidworth or Ludgershall when you call, it’s a short drive over to Perham Down. If I’m free and in Tidworth when you ring, I might even be there in 5-8 minutes. Of course, factors like time of day or if I’m on another call could affect this, but I strive to minimize wait times. When you book in advance, I’ll arrive a few minutes early to be safe.
Q: Can I book a taxi from Perham Down to go long distance, like to Heathrow or London?
Yes. I do long-distance bookings from Perham Down frequently It’s wise to arrange these in advance so we can agree on a pickup time and price. I’ll then meet you in Perham Down (yes, even if it’s 3 AM for that red-eye flight, I’ll be there with coffee in hand!). The ride to Heathrow, for instance, usually takes about 1.5 to 2 hours depending on traffic. My car is comfortable for long trips, and I’m happy to make a pit stop if you need a break. So whether it’s an airport, a seaside holiday, or visiting family in another county, I can be your private driver.
Q: What areas do you cover around Perham Down?
I cover everywhere in the vicinity: Tidworth, Ludgershall, Shipton Bellinger, Collingbourne, and all the little hamlets and military housing areas nearby. Basically, if you live in or near SP9 (the Tidworth/Perham Down area) or even stretching toward SP11 (Andover direction) or SP4 (Salisbury Plain area), feel free to call me. If you’re unsure, just ring and ask – chances are I’ll say yes. I never want someone in our community to feel stuck for transportation.
