Golf buggy hire in Cressing

Golf buggy hire in Cressing serves the Templar barns beside the village. Cressing Temple's Barley and Wheat barns are among the oldest timber-framed buildings in the world, and the site runs weddings, fairs and events across a walled garden and open ground.

Golf buggy hire around Cressing

Cressing lies between Braintree and Witham in mid Essex. Cressing Temple, granted to the Knights Templar in 1137, keeps two extraordinary survivals: the Barley Barn of about 1205 and the Wheat Barn of about 1280, among the oldest standing timber-framed buildings anywhere, together with a Tudor walled garden, a granary and a farmhouse on the same site.

The barns are used as an event venue and the site works exactly as barn venues do everywhere, only with a scheduled monument attached. Weddings, fairs, craft events and shows arrive into a field, and the barns, the walled garden and the courtyard sit beyond it. Everything from staging to catering to guests crosses that ground, through gateways that were built for carts.

The courtyard and made paths carry a buggy easily and the gateways admit it where they refuse a van, which is much of the point here. Wet grass in a field car park is the usual seasonal question. Any vehicle movement close to buildings of this age is decided by the site's custodians. Cressing is a run round the M25 into mid Essex.

Delivery to Cressing

We deliver to Cressing from our Bracknell depot, about 100 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 Cressing 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

  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.

Questions about hire in Cressing

Are buggies suitable at very old timber buildings

Around them rather than in them, and on routes the custodians agree. The advantage is that a buggy is light, narrow and produces no exhaust, all of which matter near historic timber. The decision about proximity is always the site's.

Why do barn weddings so often need a buggy

Because a barn is a farm building with a field for a car park, and there is rarely anything made between the two. Guests cross it in wedding shoes, twice, once in daylight and once in the dark, and suppliers cross it repeatedly with equipment.
