Golf buggy hire in Wallingford

Golf buggy hire in Wallingford covers a Thames-side market town with a ruined castle and riverside gardens. The Castle Gardens, the bridge and the river meadows are event ground strung out along the water, where moving guests and less mobile visitors over distance is the everyday problem.

Golf buggy hire around Wallingford

Wallingford is a Thames-side market town in south Oxfordshire, about 30 miles from our Bracknell depot up the river valley. Its landmarks run along the water: the ruins and gardens of Wallingford Castle, the medieval bridge and the river meadows. Agatha Christie lived at Winterbrook on the town's edge, and the town has stood in for Causton on screen.

The riverside is where a buggy fits, moving guests between a car park, a marquee on the meadow and a landing stage that can be a long walk apart. Being electric, it runs quietly along the bank without fumes near the water or the tables. The meadow is the constraint, firm in summer and soft after winter rain, so the surface is checked before numbers are set.

The Market Place, the Corn Exchange and the Castle Gardens take fairs, shows and weddings, and Howbery Park nearby brings the corporate events. On the surfaced paths and gravel of the gardens a buggy moves through a crowd easily; the point is always the last few hundred yards to the door.

Delivery to Wallingford

We deliver to Wallingford 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 Wallingford 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.

What buggies get used for around Wallingford

• Riverside weddings and events moving guests between meadow, marquee and landing stage.
• Heritage gardens and ruins moving less mobile visitors on gravel and firm paths.

Questions about hire in Wallingford

How far is Wallingford from your depot

About 30 miles by road from our Bracknell depot, up the Thames valley into south Oxfordshire, priced on that distance.

Can a buggy work on a river meadow at a wedding

When the meadow is firm, yes, and it is a common reason people hire one, carrying guests between the marquee, the parking and the river without fumes near the tables. After heavy rain the ground is the limit, so we look at the surface first.

Do you cover Cholsey, Benson and Crowmarsh too

Yes. They sit in the same run along the river around Wallingford and are priced on road distance to the venue.

Are buggies allowed in the Castle Gardens

On the gravel paths and firm ground, and with the site's agreement. A small electric vehicle at walking pace is usually what makes it acceptable in a public garden; whether it runs is the site's decision, and we work to it.
