Our Fleet

Take your pick from a thoughtfully maintained range of chauffeur-driven coaches and minibuses. We offer practical options for all group sizes and budgets, with professional drivers who know Somerset’s lanes and A-roads well.

Mid-size coaches (24–33 seats)

For mid-sized school outings, small corporate teams or club trips, our Mid-size coaches balance manoeuvrability with luggage space. They’re ideal when you want one vehicle to keep everyone together without the fuss of multiple cars.

Full-size coaches (49–70 seats)

When a large party needs to travel in comfort — think sports squads heading to Taunton’s county ground, race-day groups to Wincanton Racecourse, or sightseeing tours — our Full-size coaches include options with on-board lavatories, extra luggage capacity and room to stretch.

Key features

From air conditioning and reclining seats to onboard Wi‑Fi and power sockets, our vehicles are fitted to keep everyone comfortable on short hops and longer runs alike. Many clients appreciate tinted windows for privacy and generous luggage bays for suitcases and sports kit.

How to Choose

For school groups or business teams, consider a Mid-size coaches. For larger tours or events, a Full-size coaches gives everyone space to relax.

• Group size and comfort: think seats and aisle access.

Compare Your Options

When weighing up transport choices, think about convenience, cost and the experience for the whole group. Hiring a private coach means a single vehicle, a single driver, and the flexibility to travel on your schedule — far easier than juggling several cars or coordinating train times with private connections.

1. Minibuses: great for smaller groups and tight access.
2. Self-drive vans: cost-effective for those happy to drive and park themselves, but can become stressful with long journeys or large amounts of luggage.
3. Trains: quick for certain routes, but less private and usually require onward local transport at either end.
