Ice cream van hire in Dorking

Dorking is a market town in the middle of the Surrey Hills. Box Hill rises to the north-east, the Denbies vineyard covers the slopes to the north-west, and Leith Hill sits further south. The town itself is known for its antique shops on West Street and a High Street of independent businesses. It draws walkers and cyclists every weekend, and its villages, such as Westcott, Brockham, Mickleham and Capel, all run their own fetes and shows.

Events around Dorking are often outdoors and often rural: a village green, a cricket ground, a farm field or a big garden with a view. Access can mean narrow lanes, steep hills and soft ground, so we plan routes carefully and ask plenty of questions. Our vans are fully electric while serving. There is no engine running while we serve, so no noise drifting across a quiet valley and no fumes near guests sitting on the grass.
