From Portsmouth Port to the Pastures of Lydney: A Chauffeur’s Journey into the Countryside

From Portsmouth Port to the Pastures of Lydney: A Chauffeur’s Journey into the Countryside

Posted: 13/06/2025

When a Cruise Ends… and the Countryside Awaits

Not every journey ends at a London hotel or a city address — and that’s exactly what we love about this one.

Our Mercedes E-Class Saloon set off from Portsmouth International Port after collecting a couple disembarking from a Saga cruise. Their final destination? A secluded farm nestled deep in the Lydney countryside, Gloucestershire. No postcodes starting with SW1 or W1 here — just a muddy track, misty skies, and a field full of curious sheep.

This isn’t your usual executive transfer — but it is a perfect example of what Plus Chauffeurs does best: flexible, friendly, professional service, no matter the terrain.

Luxury Travel, Even Off the Beaten Track

The rain was falling, the wipers were on, and our driver navigated the winding lanes of the Forest of Dean with confidence and care. With the comforts of our Mercedes E-Class, the clients relaxed after their cruise, warm and dry, watching the landscape change from coastal city to rolling green pastures.

Upon arrival, they were welcomed by the sights of grazing sheep and a traditional farmstead — a perfect English welcome home. And yes, our chauffeur handled the narrow muddy lane like a pro.

Why Clients Trust Plus Chauffeurs

Whether we’re transferring guests from a cruise terminal to a remote farm in Gloucestershire, or from a corporate HQ to Heathrow, Plus Chauffeurs offers the same level of service every time:

✅ Punctuality
✅ Professionalism
✅ Tailored comfort

Our clients often choose us because they know we’re adaptable — whether it’s a long-haul airport run, a countryside detour, or a door-to-ship cruise experience.

Supporting Cruise Travel with a Personal Touch

We regularly work with Saga and other cruise lines to deliver smooth, pre-booked transfers from ports including Portsmouth, Southampton, and Dover.

From solo travellers to couples returning to charming corners of the countryside, we tailor each journey to suit.

And in this case? Our E-Class Saloon, clean and composed, did what many wouldn’t expect of a luxury chauffeur vehicle — gracefully arriving at a farm gate, flanked by sheep and the serene Gloucestershire hills.
