Golf buggy hire around Wimpole

Wimpole lies south west of Cambridge, an estate of around 2,500 acres held by the National Trust. Wimpole Hall is the largest house in Cambridgeshire, standing at the end of a lime avenue that runs for about two miles, with a park landscaped by Bridgeman, Brown and Repton, a Gothic folly on the ridge, a walled garden and a working home farm with rare breeds.

Several attractions on one holding is the shape here. Visitors arrive at a car park and then choose between the hall, the farm, the walled garden and the parkland walks, each a distance from the others and from the entrance. Families with children do the farm; older visitors want the hall and garden; a great many people cannot manage all of it. Estate, garden and farm teams cover the same ground daily.

Made drives, the stable yard and the farm's hardstanding carry a buggy well; the parkland is grass on Cambridgeshire clay and follows the season closely. The avenue and the ridge are open ground. Trust land means Trust rules on vehicle access. Wimpole is a run north east from our depot.

Delivery to Wimpole

We deliver to Wimpole from our Bracknell depot, about 90 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 Wimpole 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 Wimpole

Why do multi-attraction estates need buggies

Because the visitor has to choose. When the hall, the farm and the garden are each a long walk apart, many people see one and go home, and the ones who miss out are usually those least able to walk. A shuttle changes what the site can offer.

How does Cambridgeshire clay affect the ground

It sets the season firmly. Clay parkland carries a buggy comfortably through a dry summer and ruts badly from autumn, and once cut up it stays cut up. We ask about the date and would rather restrict to made drives than damage a park.

How far is Wimpole from your depot

A run north east from our Bracknell depot towards Cambridge, with the measured road distance shown as its own line on the quote.

Do you cover Royston, Arrington and Orwell as well

Yes. They sit within a short drive of the estate and are covered in the same delivery run.
