Golf buggy hire in Coniston

We hire electric buggies to Coniston and its lake, for weddings and events at the lakeside, the country houses and the fell-foot settings of the southern Lakes. Every buggy comes charged, is placed where you want it and is collected at the end. Tell us the date, the venue and the guest numbers and we will work out how many you need.

Golf buggy hire around Coniston

Coniston is a former copper and slate village at the head of Coniston Water, below the great whaleback of the Old Man of Coniston, looking across the lake to Brantwood, the home of John Ruskin, with the restored steam yacht Gondola still working the water and Donald Campbell remembered here. The lakeside, the country houses and the fell-foot settings around Coniston and neighbouring Torver, Hawkshead and Brantwood host weddings and events across lakeside, fell-foot and woodland ground.

The lakeshore and fell-foot ground is where a buggy earns its place: the settings sit between the lake, the jetties and the gardens below the Old Man with parking apart, and the ground runs from firm lawn to lakeshore shingle and the steep fell-foot behind. A buggy carries guests across the ground, spares older and less mobile guests the walk to the jetty or up from the shore, and keeps a party moving on ground that runs from mown lakeside grass to woodland path and fell-foot pasture, soft and wet underfoot below the fells.

Coniston lies on the B5285 at the head of the lake, with Torver, Hawkshead, Brantwood and Tarn Hows close by. We bring the buggies, set them up and collect them, so a day on Coniston Water runs smoothly.

Delivery to Coniston

We deliver to Coniston from Bracknell, about 280 miles by road. Delivery is priced on that distance and shown as its own line on your quote, separate from the hire, so you can see exactly what each part costs.

We bring the buggies on a trailer, set them up at the venue, show your team how they work, and collect them at the end of the hire. Nobody needs to tow anything or collect anything themselves.

Which buggies suit Coniston venues

• 

  4 seater

  A 4 seater golf buggy carries a driver and three passengers, usually in two rows. It is a popular choice for weddings, small group transport and general venue use.

• 

  6 seater

  A 6 seater golf buggy carries a driver and five passengers. It is the usual choice once you are moving groups rather than individuals, and it is the smallest size that works properly as a shuttle.

• 

  8 seater golf buggy

  An 8 seater golf buggy, sometimes called a people mover, carries a driver and seven passengers. It is the largest option we hire and is built for moving guests in numbers on a set route, rather than for general runabout use.

What buggies get used for around Coniston

• Carrying guests from the jetty to a lakeside setting.
• Sparing older relatives the walk up from the shore.
• Moving a wedding party between a lakeside ceremony and a reception.
• Crossing fell-foot pasture that is soft and wet underfoot.

Questions about hire in Coniston

Do you deliver golf buggies to Coniston?

Yes. We cover Coniston, Torver, Hawkshead, Brantwood and Tarn Hows, delivering to the venue and collecting afterwards.

Can buggies manage the lakeshore and fell-foot ground?

The fell-foot ground is soft and wet, so we agree firm routes with you and flag any ground to avoid.

Do you cover weddings at the lakeside and local houses?

We do. Tell us the layout and where guests park and we will plan the buggies around your day.

How many buggies will we need?

It depends on guest numbers and the distances on site. Give us both and we will suggest a sensible number.
