Malvern has two railway stations, and most of our local journeys start or finish at one of them. Whether you are coming home late from London, catching an early train to Birmingham or visiting Malvern for the first time, this guide explains how to get a Malvern taxi from the station without waiting around.
Great Malvern or Malvern Link: which station?
Both stations are on the same line, so most trains stop at both. Which one you use depends on where you are going in Malvern.
- Great Malvern station is on Avenue Road, below the town centre. It is the closer stop for Church Street, Malvern Theatres, the Priory, the hills and the streets around Barnards Green and Malvern Wells.
- Malvern Link station is in Malvern Link, on the Worcester side of town. It is the closer stop for Malvern Link, Newtown, the Worcester Road and the north of Malvern. Our base on Howsell Road is only a short drive away.
Trains from both stations run to Worcester, Birmingham, Hereford and, on the Cotswold Line, through Oxford to London Paddington. Colwall station, on the far side of the hills, is on the same line too.
Can I just find a taxi at the station?
Sometimes, but often not at quiet times. Late evening and early morning trains often arrive with no taxi in sight, and the walk up to Great Malvern town centre is steep with luggage. The simple answer is to book before you travel, so a car is already waiting when you step off the train.
How to book a taxi to meet your train
- Call or WhatsApp us on 07498 543252, the Malvern taxi number for Ramies Taxi.

- We confirm the booking and a fixed price straight away.
Going to the station
Early trains are the ones people worry about most. We work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on advance booking, so a 5am pick-up for the first train is fine. Book the night before at the latest, and leave a few spare minutes for parking and tickets. If you are travelling with heavy bags, tell us when you book so we can help you load them.

Short journeys around Malvern get a fixed price when you book, based on the pick-up and drop-off. You can see more fares on our price list. Sometimes the train is not the best choice at all. If you are heading to the airport, a taxi from your door can be simpler than two changes with suitcases. Read our guide to Malvern to Birmingham Airport by taxi.
Visiting Malvern by train?
Many visitors come for Malvern Theatres, a walk on the hills or a show at the Three Counties Showground. A taxi from the station gets you to a hotel or a walk start point without the climb. For show days, see our Three Counties Showground taxi guide. We also cover villages that are hard to reach by train, like Hanley Swan and Upton upon Severn.
