Cropley Coaches The official page of Cropley Coaches with up to date info and general information about us! And that was how Cropley Coaches was born.

Originally founded in 1920 in Lincolnshire, Cropley Coaches is a real family business, having been handed down from grandfather to father to son. Our founder Randolph started by taking local produce to markets in a horse drawn cart but occasionally a few people would want lifts to the markets. Once taking people started to outweigh taking produce, Randolph had a local tradesman build him a proper

horse drawn cart with seating. When Randolph’s son Len Cropley took charge of the company Len moved the company forward by doing more UK distance work moving us out of the local service sector and into the private coach hire market. Len’s son John Cropley & his wife Sandra have been in charge since 1986, again, pushing the company even further by breaking into the continental market while cementing Cropley Coaches as one of the premier companies for coach travel. What we do

Private coach hire for UK

Please check your passports for those who have booked on or are considering coming on our Paris and Disneyland Paris day trips.

My passport was issued more than 10 years ago - can I travel in the EU?
No. Some holidaymakers have been caught out at airports because their passports were issued more than 10 years ago. Up until 2018, the UK government allowed for unspent time on passports to be added to the new passport when renewing, meaning some UK passports are valid for more than 10 years.

This didn’t matter while the UK was in the EU because passports were valid up to and including the expiry date.

But you will now be denied entry if your passport issue date was more than 10 years ago.

Check your passport meets the EU’s post-Brexit requirements before you book a holiday

Just a quick shout out to all the awesome students that use our coaches for home to school LCC contracts.

These last two years, have been challenging to say the least, but it gives us great hope for the future when you have been as considerate and understanding as you have been.

We really appreciate that you all did as requested (masks/seat spacing etc) for your saftey and ours in what was a very uncertain and worrying moment.

Trust us, it's been no fun driving with masks on either lol.

So Thank you.

Make the most of your summer...

See you all in September. 🚍🚍

Stay safe
