Golf buggy hire around Hovingham

Hovingham is an estate village of honey-coloured stone in the Howardian Hills, built before Hovingham Hall, the Palladian house entered through a great riding school, with one of the oldest private cricket grounds in the country on its lawns. The hall, the Worsley Arms on the green, and the country houses and estates around Hovingham and neighbouring Coulton and Slingsby, with the vast Castle Howard a short way east, stage weddings and events across parkland, cricket-ground lawn and estate ground.

The parkland and estate ground is the practical point: the hall's grounds and the great neighbouring estates spread wide, with the settings, the lawns and the parking set apart, and the ground runs from mown lawn to Howardian parkland, rolling and soft after rain. A buggy runs guests over the ground, saves the older guests the walk on a spread-out estate, and keeps a wedding party moving between the house, the gardens and a marquee across ground on a grand scale.

Hovingham lies on the B1257 between Malton and Helmsley, with Coulton, Slingsby, Terrington and Castle Howard close by. We handle the delivery, the set-up and the collection, and for a large estate we plan the routes with you.

Delivery to Hovingham

We deliver to Hovingham from Bracknell, about 270 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 Hovingham 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.
