Golf buggy hire around Horringer

Horringer sits at the gates of Ickworth, a few miles south west of Bury St Edmunds. The house is unlike anything else in the county: a great domed rotunda of the 1790s with two curved corridors running out to flanking wings, set in a park of around 1,800 acres landscaped by Capability Brown, with an Italianate garden, a walled garden, woodland walks and a hotel occupying one wing.

The building's own shape creates distance before the park is considered. A rotunda with corridors running out to wings means the far end of the house is a considerable walk from the entrance, and the hotel operates in one of those wings with its own guests and service. Outside, the park, the gardens and the woodland walks spread far beyond that, with car parking placed to protect the setting.

The made drives, the stable yard and the garden paths carry a buggy well and are largely level. The park is grass and follows the season. A hotel inside a Grade I house means service and guest movement runs to whatever the property allows. Horringer is a long run north east from our depot.

Delivery to Horringer

We deliver to Horringer from our Bracknell depot, about 130 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 Horringer 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 Horringer

Can a buggy be used at a hotel inside a historic house

On the drives and made ground, where the property agrees. Its usefulness there is guest transfers and luggage between parking, entrance and the far wing, and being electric it does that without exhaust anywhere near the building.

Do you supply for both hotel and estate use on one site

We can, and it is worth flagging both, because the jobs differ. Guest transfer wants a passenger vehicle on made ground; estate work wants a load bed on rougher going. Getting the mix right matters more than the total number.
