Golf buggy hire around Godalming

Godalming sits in the steep, wooded country of the upper Wey valley, a different Surrey from the flat riverside towns to the north. Winkworth Arboretum is laid out across a hillside above two lakes, and Charterhouse occupies a large campus on the edge of the town. The place has a quiet claim as the first in the world to light its streets by public electricity, in 1881.

Winkworth is a hillside of specimen trees threaded with narrow paths, where a buggy carries the garden team and visitors who cannot manage the climb. It has to be a slow, booked machine among the planting, and the National Trust sets whether and where it runs at all.

Charterhouse is the campus case: open days, functions and sports fixtures move people between halls, boarding houses and playing fields set well apart, with parking that can be a walk from the event. Being electric, a buggy runs quietly through grounds in use. Busbridge Lakes and its gardens nearby take weddings on the same lines.

Delivery to Godalming

We deliver to Godalming from our Bracknell depot, about 25 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 Godalming 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.

Questions about hire in Godalming

How far is Godalming from your depot

About 25 miles by road from our Bracknell depot, south into the Wey valley, priced on that distance.

Can a buggy work on a hillside garden like Winkworth

On the surfaced paths and at walking pace, if the garden allows it. The climb is no trouble for an electric buggy, which pulls a steady gradient, but whether it runs at all is the National Trust's decision, not ours.

Do you cover Guildford, Farncombe and Milford as well

Yes. They sit in the same part of Surrey and are priced on road distance to the venue.

Does the wooded valley terrain suit a buggy

The trees and the slope are the local character. A buggy handles the gradient without trouble, but the wooded sites mean tight paths and soft leaf mould in places, so tell us the route and we will say what the buggy will manage.
