"We hired a Barnes coach for my husband's 40th birthday and were so impressed! Both drivers were polite, professional and extremely punctual, arriving before the pick up time and waiting for us patiently. The coach itself was clean and comfortable and we all had a fantastic journey both ways. Five stars to Barnes, I would definitely recommend!"

"Absolute 5 star service, we used Barnes to transport 41 swimmers and coaches to and from Cardiff airport. Jason on the way up put films on straight away and the trip flew by so quickly. On the way back we were caught up in bad traffic due up an accident but Dan managed to find us the quickest route home and again kept everyone happy with Harry Potter. Coaches were so comfy and will be using Barnes again on our next trip. Thank you"

"We were given a much bigger coach than we ordered which was unnecessary for the very small numbers in our party. The Driver was a lovely man - very professional and handled the large vehicle very well and negotiated the country lanes brilliantly. However, due to the size of the vehicle provided he could not make the last 100 yards to the Brewery and we had to walk down a smaller tarmac road. At the end of the Brewery tour it was very dark with no street lighting and had it not been for our personal phone torches it would have been very difficult to walk up this road. Had we been given the right size vehicle which we had ordered this would not have happened. Overall, we were pleased with the service we had from Barnes albeit the phone call the day before our event saying we had not paid (when we had paid two weeks before) caused us a slight panic and unnecessary time and phone calls to our treasurer."

"I like to use Barnes Coaches because they are dependable - always arriving on time, sociable - the drivers are always well turned out, pleasant and very helpful, and the vehicles are clean, warm and comfortable. We went on a volunteering day last week to Brean Down. There was 50+ in total, but only 25 on the coach. The journey was excellent - leaving and arriving on time. I'm always amazed how the drivers can navigate the tiny roads to National Trust properties. And on the way back.......... when everyone is tired and we had the smoothest of journeys. I would definitely use Barnes Coaches again and recommend them to others."

"We booked a 41 seat coach with Barnes for some of our wedding guests as we had a lot of family and friends staying in one particular hotel. The driver was very helpful and even took a slight detour to help a couple of stranded wedding guests, who could not get taxis, on the way back to the hotel. Thank you! The vehicle was comfortable and kept in good condition. I would definitely recommend this company to others."
