Golf buggy hire at Hever Castle and Gardens

Castle and gardens events venue in Kent. Delivered and collected, with a written quote within one working hour.

Hever Castle in Kent is a moated castle in around 125 acres of gardens laid out in the early twentieth century, with the Italian Garden, the mazes and a large lake spread across the grounds. Because the features are dispersed across the estate, moving guests between the castle, gardens and lake involves substantial distances on foot.

We are an independent golf buggy hire company. We are not affiliated with Hever Castle and Gardens or endorsed by it, and this page is general guidance for planning transport at the venue. Vehicle access at the venue is arranged with the venue directly, and we work to whatever they set.

About Hever Castle and Gardens

Hever's gardens run to roughly 125 acres, with an Italian Garden, a Tudor garden, a hundred-year-old yew maze, a water maze and a thirty-eight-acre lake, all set around the moated castle. The attractions are spread across a large landscaped estate, so an event using more than one part involves genuine walking distances.

For a wedding or a private function, carrying guests between the castle and the further gardens and lake rather than leaving them to walk the full grounds is the usual reason a buggy is booked here.

Access and getting around

Surfaces are a mix of gravel paths, mown lawns and garden walks across gently undulating ground, and the castle is entered over a bridge. Long garden approaches and soft grass areas are characteristic, so firm routes are worth planning.

Hever Castle is a listed heritage site with a registered garden, so it sets strict conditions on vehicle access, which are agreed with the venue.
