Heathrow T5 to Bath

Traveling in July. Arriving at Heathrow T5 and need to get to Bath. Opting to not take the bus straight through and seeing the price for two of us to take the bus to Reading, then the train, we are pricing minicabs. The most reasonable we have found so far is Express Airport Transport. Does anyone have experience with this company? Any other companies someone would recommend?

You won't save money taking a private hire car with only two as the single journey without considering any discounts by bus / rail offpeak is £82, and a car would be £120+. So this is a matter of convenience, which may mean more to you than money.

Look for a Heathrow-based firm in general for lower waiting charges.

Are you driving for the rest of the trip, or taking more trains, or not traveling much further? If you'll have any type of BritRail Pass, then it covers you on Heathrow Express and other trains into London Paddington Station and out again to Bath in the same day (total time 2 hours). Pass options include the whole island, just England, or some more narrowly drawn southern regions.
