Coach Hire in Manaton, Newton Abbot, Devon

Abbot Coach Travel is a friendly, family owned business based in Newton Abbot, Devon. After the closure of Snells Coaches in 1998, Abbot Coach Travel Limited began trading with directors Andrew Williams and his friend Stephen Voisey at the helm. Originally, the coaches were based on Jetty Marsh Lane in Newton Abbot and the office were run from Andrew's home. In 2007, the office relocated to separate offices in Newton Abbot. In 2014, we relocated the yard from Newton Abbot to Heathfield where the coaches are still currently stored. Stephen stepped down as a director in 2016 to enjoy semi retirement! However, he hasn't totally escaped and can still be found driving around. We have spent many years growing the business from just Andrew and Stephen with one coach to the numerous vehicles, drivers and office staff we have today. If you have travelled with us over the years, we thank you for your custom and if you are considering traveling with us, we look forward to welcoming you on board very soon.

Being a family firm you can be assured of personal and friendly attention at all times, from your initial enquiry to the end of your journey. The firm is headed by Bryan Bennett, with his son David and daughter-in-law Karen being the driving force behind the day to day running of the company, and daughter Linda looking after the administration. We have 5 full time salary drivers and several part time drivers all with full PSV and CRB/DBS checked. We started off with 16 seater mini coaches and slowly increased our fleet year on year when our reputation enabled us to do this. We have now grown to the stage where we own a fleet of 12 coaches. We cover all types of work including school travel, private hire, day trips, airport transfers and UK tours. Members of Confederation of Passenger Transport UK.
