Golf buggy hire in Forest Row

Golf buggy hire in Forest Row covers the northern edge of Ashdown Forest. The heath, the Royal Ashdown courses and the estates around give it large open sites on sandy ground that drains well and carries a buggy through most of the year.

Golf buggy hire around Forest Row

Forest Row sits on the northern edge of Ashdown Forest in the High Weald, where the Medway rises. The Royal Ashdown Forest Golf Club plays over common land here on a course famous for having no bunkers, since digging the forest turf was not permitted. Ashdown Park and Kidbrooke Park lie nearby, and the forest itself runs to some 6,500 acres of heath and woodland.

Heathland golf and forest estates make up most of the work. A club playing over open common has long walks between holes and no shortage of society and open days when its own fleet runs short. Estates and country house hotels on the forest edge run weddings and conferences with the usual spread between parking, building and marquee. Forest rangers cover a large area with tools and materials.

The sand and gravel of the Ashdown beds drain quickly, which is the practical advantage here: tracks stay usable when clay ground further north has given up. The forest is common land with commoners' rights and conservation designations, so access is not a given and is decided by the conservators. Forest Row is around 55 miles from our depot.

Delivery to Forest Row

We deliver to Forest Row from our Bracknell depot, about 55 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 Forest Row 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.

• Heathland golf clubs taking extra buggies for opens and society days.

Questions about hire in Forest Row

Do golf clubs on common land use buggies

Many do, subject to whatever the landowner or conservators permit, since common land carries rights and designations a private course does not. Where use is allowed, the long walks between holes on a heathland layout are exactly what a buggy is for.

Does sandy forest ground stay usable in winter

Better than most. The Ashdown sands drain fast, so made tracks here recover quickly after rain compared with Weald clay. Wet heath and bog are a different matter and stay off the route regardless of the season.

How far is Forest Row from your depot

Around 55 miles from our Bracknell depot into the High Weald, with the road distance shown as its own line on the quote.
