Some trips are about getting from A to B. This one was about enjoying the journey.
This route map shows a recent two-day private tour that started in London, travelled down through the West Country, and returned again — taking in those classic Devon and Cornwall roads where you’re often surrounded by coastline, rolling countryside and characterful villages. Less motorway. More scenery. More “let’s stop here, this looks lovely”.
That’s exactly where a private chauffeur-driven tour comes into its own.
Why the West Country is made for chauffeur-driven touring
Devon and Cornwall are brilliant… but they can be hard work if you’re self-driving:
-
narrow lanes and unfamiliar roads
-
parking in popular coastal spots
-
seasonal congestion around beauty hotspots
-
lots of small decisions that quietly drain the fun from the day
With a professional driver, you don’t have to think about any of that. You get the benefits of touring at your own pace — without the stress.

What a two-day private tour can look like (realistic, flexible, and enjoyable)
Every tour is tailored, but a typical two-day plan might include:
-
Day 1: London pick-up, scenic West Country drive, coastal stops, early evening hotel drop-off
-
Day 2: relaxed morning, a few “must-do” locations, lunch stop, then return to London
We can also build in:
-
restaurant reservations and timings
-
photo stops (the best ones are often unplanned)
-
accessible routes if walking needs to be minimal
-
extra pick-ups for friends/family along the way

“Minimal motorways” — why that matters
Motorways are efficient, but they’re rarely memorable.
When clients ask for “minimal motorways”, what they’re usually really asking for is:
Our drivers plan routes around your priorities — whether that’s the fastest journey, the prettiest route, or a sensible balance of both. It’s not just sat-nav. It’s experience.
What we could do for you on a tour like this
If you’re considering a West Country tour, we can help with:

two-day “stay with you” hire (driver and vehicle dedicated to your itinerary)
-
flexible luggage capacity for longer trips
-
airport add-ons (e.g., London to Heathrow/Gatwick before or after the tour)
-
UK-wide touring beyond the South West, if the trip grows

A quick note on timing (the difference between “nice” and “rushed”)
The West Country is best enjoyed with proper time buffers.
We’ll always recommend:
-
leaving London early enough to avoid peak congestion
-
scheduling “comfort breaks” and scenic stops
-
keeping the day enjoyable rather than packed
It’s surprising how often the best moments are the unplanned ones — the viewpoint you didn’t expect, the café you stumbled across, the coastal detour that becomes the highlight.
FAQs
Can you collect us from London and keep the vehicle for two days?
Yes — two-day hire is ideal for West Country touring and gives you flexibility throughout.
Do we have to stick to a strict itinerary?
Not at all. We can run to a plan, but you can change stops on the day.
What vehicle is best for a two-day tour?
It depends on passengers and luggage. We’ll advise when you enquire, and you can view Our Vehicles here: https://www.pluschauffeurs.co.uk/our-vehicles
Do you cover Devon and Cornwall?
Yes — we cover the South and South West regularly and can travel UK-wide on request.
Fact of the Day
Many of Cornwall’s most famous coastal roads were originally built to connect fishing communities and small ports — which is why today’s “scenic route” often winds through villages and along cliff edges, rather than following straight lines.
