Golf buggy hire in Hindhead

Golf buggy hire in Hindhead serves the high greensand country around the Devil's Punch Bowl. The commons here are large and the car parks sit at the rim, but the terrain is steep in places, so we are specific about where a buggy works and where it does not.

Golf buggy hire around Hindhead

Hindhead is the highest village in Surrey, sitting on greensand above the Devil's Punch Bowl, a deep natural hollow of heath and woodland that the National Trust holds along with Hindhead Common. Gibbet Hill rises behind it as one of the higher points in the south east, and since the A3 was put into a tunnel beneath the site the landscape above has been returned to heath.

The work here is site management rather than events. Rangers, contractors and conservation volunteers cover long distances on a large, remote-feeling site with limited vehicle access, carrying tools, fencing and cut scrub. A buggy on the made tracks takes a great deal of walking out of a working day, and does it without the noise a quad or a pickup brings to a quiet reserve.

Terrain is the honest limit here and it deserves stating first rather than last. The Punch Bowl is steep, and the paths that drop into it are not buggy ground under any circumstances. On the level tracks along the rim and through the plateau heath a buggy is genuinely useful. We would rather tell you that plainly than take a booking that cannot work on the day.

Delivery to Hindhead

We deliver to Hindhead from our Bracknell depot, about 30 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 Hindhead 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.

What buggies get used for around Hindhead

• Ranger and conservation work on level tracks across a large heathland site.
• Tool, fencing and scrub movement where a pickup would be intrusive or unable to reach.
• Quiet operation on a reserve where visitors come for the peace of the place.
• Visitor facility and car park support at sites with long approaches.

Questions about hire in Hindhead

Can a buggy get down into the Devil's Punch Bowl

No, and we would say so before quoting rather than after. The sides are steep and the paths into the bowl are well beyond what a golf buggy is built for. On the level tracks around the rim and across the plateau it works properly.

Is a buggy quiet enough for a nature reserve

That is one of the reasons sites like this ask for electric rather than petrol. There is no engine noise carrying across a valley and no exhaust, which matters both for the wildlife and for visitors who came for the quiet.

How far is Hindhead from your depot

Roughly 30 miles south west from our Bracknell depot. The road distance appears on the quote as its own line rather than being built into the hire rate.

Do you cover Haslemere, Grayshott and Churt as well

Yes. They ring Hindhead within a few miles and sit in the same delivery run, priced on the road distance to the venue.
