Private Hire

Private Hire gives you the flexibility to arrange transport around where you need to be and when you need to be there. We can cover local Lake District journeys, hotel and restaurant transfers, railway stations, airports, evenings out, family travel, events and longer distance trips beyond Cumbria.

For smaller parties we can offer executive car travel, while groups can travel together in our spacious passenger vehicle for up to seven passengers. Tell us who is travelling, what the journey involves and any timings that matter, and we will advise which option best suits the booking and availability.

When the journey is part of a bigger plan, reliability matters. We can arrange collection for railway and airport connections, hotel arrivals and departures, restaurant reservations, celebrations, concerts, days out and private events. Return travel can be planned at the same time, avoiding the need to organise another vehicle later in the day.

For visitors to the Lake District, this is also a practical option when you want to move between accommodation, attractions and onward transport without hiring a car or relying on several separate bookings.

Your wedding transport should feel calm, polished and properly planned. Tour The Lakes can arrange wedding travel across the Lake District for the couple, family members, the bridal party and guests, with an executive car available for smaller parties and private hire for groups of up to seven passengers.

Whether you need transport to a country house venue, hotel, ceremony, reception, restaurant or accommodation afterwards, we can work through the timings with you before the day. Multiple journeys, guest movements and return travel can all be discussed as part of the same enquiry, subject to vehicle availability.

Wedding travel is quoted individually so we can build the transport around the day you are planning rather than force it into a standard package.

Send us your date, collection point, destination, preferred times, number of passengers and the type of journey you are planning. For weddings or events, include as much of the schedule as you already know. We will come back to you with availability and a quote.
