Minibus Hire In Totnes From Small MPVs To 17-Seater Minibuses

Totnes is a historic town built on a hillside with the River Dart running through its centre, making it both scenic and practical as a base for group travel. The compact high street and older streets can be tight for manoeuvring, so smaller MPVs such as the Vauxhall Zafira or Galaxy models are the best choice when collecting groups directly from the town centre, the railway station or local car parks. These vehicles are also well suited for short trips to attractions such as Totnes Castle, the Guildhall and the popular weekly markets.

For days that stretch a little further, a 9-seater or 12-seater minibus works well. They are often chosen for trips along the A385 towards Paignton and Torbay, or across to Dartington Hall and its estate, which hosts regular events, arts performances and conferences. Groups heading towards Ashburton or Buckfastleigh to visit Buckfast Abbey or the South Devon Railway benefit from the comfort and practicality of this mid-sized category.

Larger groups planning excursions to Dartmoor National Park often favour the 15- or 17-seater models. Dartmoor is within a short drive via the A38 Devon Expressway, with its mix of open moorland, tors and narrow rural lanes. These bigger vehicles provide enough space for walking gear, picnic supplies or school equipment. A 17-seater that does not require a D1 licence can be especially useful for community organisations and youth groups that need flexibility with drivers.

Coastal journeys are equally popular from Totnes. The South Hams coastline, with Dartmouth, Blackpool Sands and Slapton Ley within easy reach, often calls for more seating and luggage space. A full-size 17-seater makes family gatherings, wedding transfers and sporting trips straightforward, especially when travelling with large amounts of baggage. For vineyards, countryside festivals or weekend tours, these vehicles add convenience and keep groups together.

By combining compact MPVs for local pickups, mid-sized options for day outings and full-capacity minibuses for extended journeys, the fleet supports the wide range of travel needs that Totnes residents, schools and visitors encounter throughout the year.
