Golf buggy hire at Stowe

Landscape gardens and historic house in Buckinghamshire. Delivered and collected, with a written quote within one working hour.

Stowe near Buckingham is an eighteenth-century designed landscape of lawns, lakes and some forty temples and monuments spread across a wide valley, cared for by the National Trust. Because the features are dispersed across the landscape, a circuit involves long distances on foot, which is where guest transport helps for an event.

We are an independent golf buggy hire company. We are not affiliated with Stowe 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 Stowe

The National Trust landscape garden covers around 250 acres within a wider parkland, laid out with lakes, wooded valleys and monuments including the Palladian Bridge. The features are spread widely, so moving between the visitor building, the house and the monuments is a genuine walk across the valley.

For a wedding or a private function using the grounds, the distances between the dispersed parts of the landscape are the thing to plan around, and a buggy carries guests across them rather than leaving them to walk the full circuit.

Access and getting around

The ground is predominantly grass, gravel and parkland paths across gently undulating terrain with lake margins, and distances from the entrance to the monuments are long. Firm routes across the landscape are worth planning.

The gardens are owned by the National Trust and the house is run separately by the Stowe House Preservation Trust and Stowe School, so any vehicle use across the grounds is agreed with the relevant body, and we work to their rules.

Is the ground at Stowe suitable for a buggy
The gravel and firm parkland paths carry a standard buggy well, and the gentle undulation is no problem for an electric vehicle. The grass is open landscape, so routes are planned with the venue, which governs where a vehicle may run.
