Chalkwell have been a family run business for over seventy five years and to this day our philosophy remains the same as it did at the beginning:

To provide a professional service with a personal touch.

If you are looking for a highly experienced and professional coach operator for a work, school or personal excursion you need look no further than Chalkwell.

Whether your requirement is for a half-day tour or a longer holiday break we provide the full back up to the group organiser.

Our coaching staff have extensive knowledge of destinations and routes throughout the UK and Europe. We are always pleased to give you pricing guides and to answer any queries you may have.

“For complete confidence in coaching”



We are an approved member of the CoachMarque scheme run by the Confederation of Passenger Transport.

This standard applies to all aspects of the business, not just the coach itself.

All CoachMarque companies operate to a strict set of criteria and are regularly assessed by an independent third party to ensure compliance with the highest standards of operation.

The financial security of each CoachMarque operator must satisfy current legal requirements.
