Ice cream van hire in Ruislip

Ruislip is a leafy suburb in the north of Hillingdon, built mostly in the interwar years around a much older village. The High Street still has a historic core near St Martin's Church and Manor Farm, while the surrounding streets are lined with semis that have long back gardens. Families make up much of the population, so school fairs, sports club days, scout events and garden parties are common through summer.

Ruislip's big draw is the Lido, a reservoir with a sandy beach, a miniature railway and Ruislip Woods around it. On hot weekends it gets very busy, with car parks full and roads slow. For private parties at home, wide residential roads and driveways make it easier to position a van than in inner London. Our vans are 100% electric while serving, with no engine or generator running, keeping a quiet street quiet.
