September 2017. We hadn't realized that the hotel our…read moretravel agent booked was nine miles from Bath until the night before our arrival, and renting a car was not an option. Did we panic? I think not! I called several car services that couldn't help us due to the last minute booking. Fortunately, I reached Craig at Roman Bath Private Hire. He picked us up at the train station in a spotless, very comfortable car, ran us out to the hotel to drop our bags and dropped us off in town for lunch at a Thai restaurant he recommended (a wonderful meal), and an afternoon walking tour of the notable sights of Bath. Then he worked with us to put together a bespoke tour of Lacock Village and Abbey, the lovely village of Castle Combe and countryside, finishing up at an overlook in a park with spectacular views of Bath, river and surrounding area. The next day, he drove us to our airport hotel by way of Stonehenge and Salisbury Cathedral, two sights added at his suggestion. We would not otherwise have seen them, so we jumped at the chance to do so. We arrived at the hotel relaxed and ready for dinner. Craig saved our visit to Bath, making great recommendations and suggestions that made the visit so much more special and enjoyable. We would definitely choose his service when we return to Bath and highly recommend Roman Bath Private Hire for anyone visiting the area.

I booked this taxi to take us to Bristol Airport some weeks before and my husband sent him an…read moree-mail as a reminder the day before our trip. I spoke to the driver concerned and we exchanged e-mails confirming the date, time and cost. It was a 4.30 a.m. pick up to catch a flight at 5.35 a.m. Richard at Ansom Cabs failed to arrive. I tried to telephone him and left a message asking him to 'phone me back. At 4.50 a.m. my husband decided that we would have to drive to the airport and we caught our flight by the skin of our teeth. They were just closing the gate! We had no petrol in our car and had the worry of how we would get home all through our holiday. Not the most relaxing way to start a long awaited vacation. My advice is do not rely on him. We have not heard a word from him and we have been home 2 days. Utterly useless!

i read a bad review on here, and felt i had to respond... I have always found Richard to be…read morepunctual and reliable, and he has some quite lucrative contracts im sure wouldn't put up with sloppiness. . I can't imagine what happened that morning with these other people, maybe it was personal problems at the time, but still not good when you have a plane to catch.. I still would rate this company highly, having used them frequently.
