Barnes Coaches

"I have used Barnes coaches for several years and this occasion was as good as my previous bookings. We hired a 19 seater minibus and were rather surprised to see a full size coach arrive to transport just 15 people but the driver explained he was doing this trip at the end of a previous trip and that the minibus was unavailable until later, when it would be used for the return trip.. The vehicle arrived promptly, was clean and the driver had no problem doing a pick up en route to our destination. I have always found Barnes drivers to be polite and helpful and will continue to use Barnes Coaches whenever I need the services of a professional coach hire company."

"Second time we have hired a Barnes coach to take a group down to Southampton. The driver down was excellent, very friendly and helpful. All of the party agreed that the holiday started as soon as we boarded the coach. I must also mention the lady I spoke to in your office who also was very helpful, especially as I changed the pickup times at very short notice."

"The Rainbow Trust charity are very grateful to Barnes for providing transport for a family to a trip to Longleat safari park that they would otherwise not have been able to go on. The driver was very helpful and considerate of their needs and made the journey an enjoyable experience for all concerned and the minibus was immaculate."

"We had a great week when we did the Celtic Connection Tour. The tour was great all the hotels were of a good standard as was the food, the only one that was a little remote from shops etc was the one in Northern Ireland. Our driver Steve was brilliant a real asset to your company. At all times he was helpful, polite, informative and had a great sense of humour, he ensured that we were kept up to date on travelling times , meal times etc and took good care of our luggage. The bus was comfortable and was always clean."

"Excellent holiday in york. Fuss free travel there and back. We had a taxi pick up both ways courtesy of Barnes. Our driver Phil was really friendly and informative. He was very smart, helpful and punctual . Phil always made sure we were told times and pick up points of the additional trips. The vehicle was clean and comfortable. The choice of hotel was excellent for service and location and the variety of trips included were well chosen. Overall the whole experience was wonderful and will definitely be something we repeat in the future. Phil is an asset to your company and goes above and beyond his job title. Keep up the good work ."

"This was our second holiday with Barnes and again we were not disappointed. From start to finish we could not fault the holiday at all. We did the trip to the Ring of Kerry and Dingle. The three hotels we used were well chosen with comfortable rooms and fine food. The driver was very informative and friendly and impressed us all with her skilful driving around some tricky narrow roads with very steep drops and hairpin bends. Even the Dolphin put in an appearance on our dolphin cruise. The pickup and drop off at the start and end of the holiday was also superb. Any negative points? The only one I could think of was the return crossing on the ferry ( it was rough ). However Barnes can not be held responsible for the weather and it made the return trip interesting. Would we use Barnes again ,well yes we have and will continue to do so."
