"Another trip out for Sainsbury's Veterans to Evesham Country Park and Events House Worcester. The coach was early so we had to go back to the first pick up to collect missing passengers but the coach was clean and Driver helpful we got to the Country park, had a lovely time. The journey from there to Events house did not run smooth as the sat nav sent us all around outskirts of Worcester instead of nearby junction off the motorway so we did arrive a little late. In all fairness some of these post codes cannot be relied on so always have an idea where you are going and discussion with the driver we had a smooth journey home and we would still always book with Barnes as they are reliable."

"Hi, I am glad you had a nice day. I certainly agree that the driver should always have an idea where he is going without using sat-nav and will certainly remind the driver of this. Hopefully it didn't impinge on your day too much. Thanks."

"The journey was good with a little inconvenience as not toilet facilities on board as well as the inability to play music as equipment faulty. The driver was very good and helpful as well as understanding. The vehicle was well kept. Overall good dealing a part from the point mentioned above."

"Hi, I am glad you had a nice day. Apologies if there was any confusion regarding your coach but you hadn't booked a coach with a toilet as at present none of our 96 seat coaches have toilets. I will look into why the audio system wasn't working though as it hadn't been reported to us previously that it wasn't working."

"My journey there and back from Christchurch was very good apart from the freezing cold air condition. It was turned off for a while as nearly all the passengers were complaining it was so cold then back on again. I was being blasted with cold air from the middle section of the ceiling which went down the whole coach . Not a happy bunny."
Would they recommend: Yes
Operator replied on 7th June 2016, 8:22am:
"Hi, I am glad you enjoyed your trip but am obviously sorry that you felt the air-conditioning was too cold. If you could please let me know the date of the trip you went on I will get one of our engineers to check this coach over to make sure there are no faults with the air conditioning system. Thanks."

"Coach driver was very helpful, cheerful and polite. Service was prompt. The caoch was clean. We went for an upgrade but were expecting a 19 seater mini-bus not a coach, which was not really the best option for our purpose."
