Reviews
Kerry M
I was booking a holiday over Christmas/New Year and wanted to be sure businesses were operational. Phil replied immediately to my inquiries back in October, sent a confirmation the day before my booking, and was in touch during the rail dramas causing a 1.5hr delay in my arrival time. When I finally arrived, there he was, with my name in lights - literally (on an iPad screen :) ) waiting for me on the platform.
A fantastic end to a hectic travel day. Thank you, Phil!
Also a very personable and friendly fella, and competitively priced. You cannot go wrong :)
Prices
Our Prices are always less than the taxi meter rate (when you book in advance). For example a taxi from Bodmin Parkway to Rock will is £50 (approx day rate).
The distance to your destination is not an issue either,so whether your taxi journey is short or Long distance we can help.
During the busy summer season we can get booked up very quickly. So it is best to book your Bodmin Parkway Taxis with us as soon as you have your train tickets even if it is months in advance. We always confirm advanced bookings on the day of travel or just before.
Credit and debit cards now taken as well as Apple and Android/Google pay.
Free in car WiFi as well.
Choice
The choice of Bodmin taxis has got smaller in recent times. Bodmin Taxis and No1 Cabs have both gone. So with fewer companies this also means less choice. However there are still a number of independent Bodmin Taxi companies such as..
A1 and of course
Carbis Cabs.
Lower overheads
The fact is with lower overheads and no office premises or staff to pay for, we can keep our prices lower. Also a few Bodmin taxi drivers have stopped working altogether. This means it is always a good idea to book your taxi in advance when ever possible. This is most important when booking from Bodmin Parkway to ensure that Carbis Cabs will be there when you arrive.
So if its taxis from Bodmin train station or taxis to Bodmin train station
then this site is where you need to be.
The Problem with Bodmin Parkway Train Station
The problem with Bodmin Parkway Train Station is, well where do i start?
Bodmin Parkway is a small station located in mid Cornwall 3.5 miles from Bodmin Town.
There are bus services that operate from the station, however they don't seem to coincide with the train times and can lead to customers being left waiting for an hour or more.
Unfortunately no path exists between the station and the town, only a 60mph main road so a bus or taxi is the only option.
The term "Parkway" normally means a station situated outside of the main town so being stranded is a definite probability if you have not arranged a lift of some sort.
There are a handful of taxis that operate from the station but they are by no means 24 hours so do not expect there to be lots of them just waiting to be hired when you arrive.
Cornwall is very rural so transport to and from Bodmin Parkway accommodates for the small population of the local area.
Parking is also a problem as the public car park is small and gets full very quickly. The pick up point only has spaces for 4 cars and during busy spells normally gets taken over by pre-booked taxis and people collecting friends/relatives.
So basically when travelling to Bodmin Parkway Train Station always make sure you have organised onward travel way in advance, especially during the busy summer months.
This is not London/Manchester etc etc so please be patient.
