The whole process was brilliant. I was really impressed with how accommodating everyone was.

It has been a great experience from completing the theory test right up until passing the practical. I would like to thank the Castle Driver team for their support and assistance throughout and in particular Cliff, whom was very supportive, patient and professional over the last couple of days. Passing first time would not have been possible without his expertise and brilliant approach which not only prepared me for the test but also gave me lots of confidence during it.

Once again a huge thank you for pulling out the stops to get the bus delivered today, it really is appreciated. It definitely confirms that you were the right choice in supplying our minibus. I will be singing your praises to anyone who is thinking of getting a minibus.

A massive thank you !!

I was very impressed with Castle's whole package. The online theory preparation was excellent and allowed me to see my progress and I felt very confident going in to the test. Paul was excellent. Again I felt very confident going into the test as he had prepared me so well for it.

Thank you very much for your efficiency in providing us with our new minibus. We are delighted with the service from you and your team, the bus was delivered on time and as arranged - the two drivers were lovely, friendly and helpful and the whole process has been smooth and efficient.

A huge thank you on behalf of all of us at Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service and for providing us with an excellent mini bus training service. We are all confident about driving teams around now and have the certificates to go with it.

I was extremely impressed with the lesson structure for my minibus driving training, I felt the time available was ample time to prepare me for the test and Shane was extremely supportive and gave me lots of confidence in my driving going into my test.

Liz was a super instructor: very easy to listen to, calm and just the right amount of direction. She was spot on with the prep for the test too.

I couldn't have passed my D1 test without Cliff! An excellent instructor and person, very lucky to spend two days with him. His knowledge and tips got me through a very stressful test.

There are 420 very excited children and 60 very excited staff at this end. Seriously, we are very grateful for the superb way in which Castle Vehicle Leasing have helped us to secure these vehicles on terms not offered by our local authority.

Castle has made this process so easy for us, and you have been so quick and flexible, we really are looking forward to a long-term association with Castle.

Cliff has been absolutely fantastic. He is an amazing instructor, he has a lovely calm manner that inspires confidence and his tips during D1 training have been outstanding.

All of the staff has given me good feedback so thank you for your help and support.

The D1 process was painless. Training prepared me perfectly for the test.

Thanks for our wonderful new minibus which arrived today!
I will recommend your company without hesitation.

I have been very impressed with Castle Driving who I have found to be supportive and efficient.

Thank you ever so much for all your hard work behind the scenes. You've all played an integral part in me passing this qualification. Paul was fantastic as an instructor. Very friendly and excellent at transferring his knowledge. Couldn't have asked for more !

I have been very impressed by the level of contact, communication and support received. I would have no hesitation in recommending your company to colleagues.

It was important that the D1 training was facilitated in the school holidays to avoid disruption to the school timetable. Thank you so much for providing the training Castle Minibus. I would certainly recommend your services to other schools.

The minibus was fantastic and you did us proud. We would not hesitate to use Castle Minibus again or recommend others to do the same.

Could you please pass on our thanks to your driver trainer, who came and led the Midas training for us yesterday?

He was very professional and supportive. We all fully enjoyed the day.

"I passed my D1 practical test today and I just wanted to give you some feedback on my experience in completing my D1 assessment with Castle driver training.

The whole process was extremely straightforward and easy thanks to Cliff, my instructor and all the staff at Castle who I have been in contact with (Anne and Val are names which spring to mind). I was kept up to date with the whole process and always received a quick response when I had a query or question; as a teacher, I am often very busy throughout the week so this efficiency was highly appreciated! The level of service that Castle provided to me was fantastic - the fact that all of my tests were organised for me and I did not have to do anything other than practice my theory and turn up for the test made the whole process easy and not at all stressful.

I would also like to say a special thanks to Cliff, my driving instructor. Again he has kept in regular contact with me throughout the process, even to wish me good luck and congratulate me when I passed my theory which I thought was a really nice touch. As an instructor I cannot rate him highly enough, he is extremely knowledgeable and a fantastic teacher – thanks to his guidance I am much more confident about my driving. When I was really nervous before my test Cliff really made me feel at ease and I am sure that without him I would not have passed!

I would be grateful if you could pass on my thanks to your staff and especially Cliff. I will also pass on my feedback to our principal and business manager and I will not hesitate to recommend Castle driver training in the future."

I am very happy to have passed the D1. I thought the training was excellent. Paul was a fantastic instructor and had a great way of ironing out problems and habits.

Liz was a brilliant trainer who made me feel very relaxed but also confident in my ability to pass. I was very lucky to have her as my trainer.

Castle made the whole process easy and the theory material was very, very helpful. Liz was very supportive, knowledgeable and friendly- An excellent instructor.

Our minibus is absolutely amazing. We've started picking up and returning children who live a long way away. And of course it`s publicity for us when we are out and about. I wish we could have got one ages ago.

I will always recommend your company for the minibus because I am really delighted to have gone with you last year.

A very successful outcome and a delighted new minibus driver!

I just wanted to thank you for helping me pass my minibus test... your trainer was a true professional who used a range of coaching techniques in order to get the best from me.

His tuition was intense but rewarding. He really pushes you hard but it is totally worth it by the time you come to your test. I felt totally prepared and breezed through the assessment with little problem.

The feedback I would give is on how excellent Cliff is. As a teacher myself I deal with how people should learn and I believe Cliff is truly excellent at it. He speaks in a slow, methodical manner which is easy to understand and the expert way to do it for instruction. He steadily builds up the learning progressively, with structured instruction.This not only made my driving better but also helped raise my confidence. His relaxed manner of teaching is really good and I was most impressed with him.

Just to let you know the minibus has arrived and all is well. Can I take this opportunity to thank you and your team for a very impressive and efficient service? I wish it was this easy all the time....

We decided to lease our school minibuses from Castle Minibus under a contract hire agreement because it provided us with fixed costs, it removed all hassle and administration and it eliminated the financial risks by not having to pay volatile maintenance costs. Instead everything is covered by the monthly rentals.

Perhaps what we didn’t anticipate was that by operating modern and professional minibuses, that carry our school name and branding, it would also attract more pupils. Many new parents made contact with us after seeing the minibuses, and placed their children with us as a result.

Recognising the potential that the minibuses brought to us, we subsequently began advertising our open days on them – which has again resulted in an increase in numbers.

We are delighted with the minibus, the school are using it loads and the staff, pupils and parents are very happy with it.

Those that did the training enjoyed the day and found it useful too.
