 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A massive thank you to Barton Coaches for making, the process of booking a minibus simple and easy for Royal Ascot. Also, a huge thank you to our driver Ash who rang me 24hrs before we was due to leave to tell me the time he would arrive, the destination was correct and how many people. When he arrived he was here 30mins before the set of time. Will definitely use them again in the future.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hand on heart, this was the best company I have ever used for hire.
2wks before the hen doo we were let down by another hire company, so short notice trying to find transport was a challenge. Nevertheless, Barton coach company were absolutely brilliant on the phone. Explained everything from start to finish.
Our driver Kevin (aka Kevlar), was an absolute super star. He arrived early which was perfect, and kept in contact for our collection point home.  Driving was top-notch too. He even tolerated our ‘wonderful’ singing voices, and endless loo breaks 🤣🤣. Kevin thank you so so much. You were an absolute gent and legend. 🙏🏻 Would definitely recommend this company to anyone. Very reasonably priced, and Kevin👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
