The experience
An hour that stays with you
A private carriage ride is one of the few things that genuinely slows time. On the wagonette or in the Landau, you hear the hooves, feel the carriage, and see the countryside at the pace it was meant to be seen.
We operate private rides from Barlows Farm on the edge of Grantham, often through the Belvoir Castle estate in Leicestershire. For special occasions, we can discuss bespoke routes across Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire.
We carry up to four passengers in the Landau, and more on the wagonette. Flowers, prosecco or lunch arrangements can be organised if you want to make the occasion complete.
