Fantastic experience: I would just like to thank Ash for his support and kindness towards me today after a road traffic collision, Ash went above and beyond to help me get evidence with dash cam footage. His kindness and professionalism made a stressful situation so much easier to handle. Highly recommend this driving school—not just for lessons, but for the genuine care they show toward their students and others on the road!

Negative experience: I had a barely legible text of my instructor Lucie on a Sunday night saying she won't be continuing with the lessons stating it was due to performance. This is after she claimed that I was her best student and had updated my reports to reflect that, praising me after every lesson. I emailed the manager for an explanation and they just reiterated her words verbatim. That's it, no recourse no explanation and to be honest her instructions were inconsistent and contradictory at the best of times. Can only assume that she received a better offer or a client wishing to do more hours. I don't want to tarnish the entire company with the same brush because of one instructor but looking at all the reviews it makes sense that she isn't featured in any positive ones. If you get an instructor called Lucie, best to ask for someone else.

Fantastic experience: I used Carl to train my son. Carl has a brilliant car, latest tech and dual controls with access to a second should anything unforeseen happen. Best move ever, did exactly what he said he would. Carl is a very skilled instructor who has the ability to train younger drivers without them feeling under pressure. After each lesson my son came back with new skills that he knew how to apply and were also easy to remember. A pass with 2 minors for a young lad in his situation is an excellent result. Thank you Carl.

Fantastic experience: Recently passed with Carl, thoroughly enjoyed our lessons together, always on time and very chatty during the lesson making me feel very welcome and comfortable throughout my time with him. His patience and knowledge was very helpful too at the beginning. Would highly recommend going with Carl!
