Surrey Hills and Bracknell Forest Carriage Company is a family effort. Run by Emma Brace with help from her long suffering husband and trainee Coachman Chris. Based now in Shurlock Row, we provide horse and carriages rides, weddings, schools proms and trips for other special occasions. We can also carry out horse powered timber extraction, bracken control and small holder ploughing/harrowing. We l

ove our work and really enjoy getting to know you, our customer and making your day memorable for all the right reasons. We travel anywhere in the Surrey/Kent/Sussex/Berkshire areas, all we ask is that there is somewhere safe to park our lorry, unload and hitch in. Our horse is a stunning French Comtois called Tamise. She is trained to all types of draught work and loves her job. Tamise is very friendly, loves being made a fuss of and nothing phases her. For those wishing to learn to drive she is a very willing teacher. We also have Kala in training who is a young Comtois, she is proving to have a sensible head on her and is very very affectionate.

This evening’s school prom for the beautiful young ladies Sharmaine and Mya.
Carriage decorated in hot pink and blue to match their dresses. I can’t take credit for the decorations as they were made by Sharmaine’s lovely mum!

Maternity leave and honeymoon officially over!
Wedding today in the glorious sunshine. Pick up from The Berystede Hotel ending at Coworth Park. Melissa was a stunningly beautiful bride, her outdoor ceremony was just perfect.
And when a helicopter landed we just had to pose next to it.

Thank you everyone for your kind wishes on the birth of Alexander.
He’s yet to meet the girls, here he is “supervising” at the stables. I personally think he’s sleeping on the job!

Our Story

Surrey Hills Carriage Company is run by Emma as a part-time job and hobby. The main aims being to introduce more people to working heavy horse and to showcase what can be done with a well trained horse. We provide carriages rides around the beautiful Surrey countryside, as well as weddings, schools proms and trips for other special occasions. We can also carry out horse powered timber extraction and bracken control. We also take part in local ploughing matches and are part of the RLC Heritage display team, pulling the WW1 Mk2 horse ambulance. We love our work and really enjoy getting to know you, our customer and making your day memorable for all the right reasons. We travel anywhere in the Surrey/Kent/Sussex/Berkshire areas, all we ask is that there is somewhere safe to park our lorry, unload and hitch in. Our horse is a stunning French Comtois called Tamise. She is 11 years old and loves her job. Tamise is very friendly, loves being made a fuss of and nothing phases her. For those wishing to learn to drive she is a very willing teacher. We also have Heather in training who is a 8 year old British Bred Percheron. Heather shows more of an inclination to be a ridden horse than a carriage horse.
