Your local Ulverston cab service
Ulverston moves at its own pace, but traffic can build around the one‑way system and festival hotspots. Our drivers know the shortcuts and the pinch points, from Market Street to New Market Street and along the canal. If you are new to the area, we are happy to suggest the quickest route, or a scenic option over to the coast when time allows. We operate day and night (subject to availability), with clear communication so you are never left wondering where your cab is.
Vehicles for every journey
Travelling light or bringing the whole family? We run well‑maintained saloons for up to four passengers and spacious 6‑8 seaters with room for luggage, pushchairs and shopping. If you need a child seat, let us know when you book. We can also allocate a wheelchair‑accessible vehicle with a trained driver to help with boarding and bags. Whatever you choose, you can expect a tidy interior, good legroom and a smooth ride across town or further afield.

Airports, stations and long runs
Ulverston is well placed for road and rail connections, and we make transfers simple. We serve Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds Bradford and Newcastle airports, with pick‑ups timed to flight schedules and optional meet‑and‑greet. For rail, we cover Ulverston Station, Barrow‑in‑Furness and Oxenholme for fast links to Manchester, Glasgow and London. Longer journeys are no problem: business trips to Lancaster, hospital appointments in Preston, ferries from Heysham, or weekends away in the Dales. Tell us your timings and preferences, and we will plan a comfortable route with appropriate breaks.

Booking and pricing made simple
Pre‑booking is the easiest way to lock in the vehicle you want and a convenient pick‑up slot, especially on market days, during Another Fine Fest, or in the runup to Dickensian Festival. Share your pick‑up point, destination, passenger count and luggage, and we will confirm your price before you travel. Card payments are accepted. If your plans change, let us know and we will do our best to adjust.
Accessibility and travelling with pets
We believe travel should be straightforward for everyone. If you have accessibility needs, mention them when you book and we will provide a suitable vehicle and a driver who can assist. Dogs are welcome. After a muddy walk up Hoad Hill or along the canal towpath, our larger vehicles give your pet the space to settle in comfortably.

Visitors drop into the Laurel and Hardy Museum, browse the markets and explore foodie spots around Market Street and King Street. With rail links to Barrow‑in‑Furness, Lancaster and Manchester, and easy road access to Coniston Water and the southern Lakes, Ulverston is a handy base for work and weekends alike.
