Golf buggy hire in Fordwich

Golf buggy hire in Fordwich covers the smallest town in Britain, on the Stour above Canterbury. It has a medieval town hall, a former quay and riverside meadows, all reached down lanes with no parking to speak of.

Golf buggy hire around Fordwich

Fordwich stands on the Great Stour a couple of miles above Canterbury, and it is the smallest town in Britain, with a charter, a mayor and a timber-framed town hall of about 1544 to prove it. It was the port for Canterbury until the river silted, and the quay it used survives beside the water. Riverside meadows and the Stour valley reserve spread either side.

Small does not mean simple. Events at the town hall, riverside gatherings and private functions in the gardens along the water all arrive down narrow lanes with almost no parking, and everything is carried the last stretch on foot. The Stour valley nature reserve nearby has its own access problem, with hides and paths well away from any road.

Made lanes and the quay are firm; the meadows are floodplain and go soft or under water through winter, and the riverbank is soft year round. A buggy fits where a van cannot, which is most of its value here. Fordwich is a run east from our depot round the M25.

Delivery to Fordwich

We deliver to Fordwich 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 Fordwich 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 Fordwich

Is a buggy worth hiring for a very small venue

Sometimes more than for a large one. Small venues are often the ones with no parking, no loading and a narrow lane, and the thing they need is precisely a vehicle that can get to the door when nothing else can.

How much does winter flooding matter here

Enough to plan around. The Stour meadows are floodplain and go under regularly, so summer events on made ground are straightforward and winter ones on the meadow are a different conversation entirely.

How far is Fordwich from your depot

A run east from our Bracknell depot round the M25 and out to east Kent, with the measured road distance shown as its own line.

Do you cover Canterbury, Sturry and Stodmarsh as well

Yes. They are within a short drive of Fordwich and are covered in the same delivery run.
