Golf buggy hire in Salcombe

Golf buggy hire around Salcombe

Salcombe sits at the mouth of a sheltered ria, a drowned valley of blue water and sandy coves at the southern tip of the South Hams. The town climbs steeply from the estuary and the sandy beaches lie around the headlands, so the settings sit on the waterfront or up on the slopes, and the tide and the gradient both shape how guests and vehicles move.

Overbeck's, the Edwardian house and subtropical clifftop garden in National Trust care above the estuary, is the setting that draws events, laid out across a steep site with long views over the water. South Sands and North Sands, the town's sandy coves, and Snapes Point on the National Trust headland add seaside and open-air occasions.

The A381 drops down from Kingsbridge to the estuary head, and the coves and lanes run round the ria: Malborough and Salcombe on the west bank, East Portlemouth across the water by ferry, South Pool and Chivelstone up the tidal creeks, Hope Cove out on the coast.

We deliver charged, talk your team through the controls, and come back to collect once the event is over.

Delivery to Salcombe

We deliver to Salcombe from our Bracknell depot, about 210 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 Salcombe 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.

• Carrying wedding guests across the subtropical garden at Overbeck's.
