Burghley House meet Sunday 27th July 2014
Discussion
Hi all,
Just testing the water for a 2014 meet ala Hever but to take place at Burghley House at Stamford,PE9 3JY.
After initial contact with their most helpful Events Manager I'm pleased to announce that Burghley would welcome a gathering of Aston's and their owners so if there is sufficient
interest I don't mind organising a new event for our calendar,possibly the end of May or in June,but thats up for debate.
To give you a brief overview,
The cost per car would be £5.00 which allows collective parking for display at the North Court Yard Gate,an additional charge for entry to the Stately Home and its Gardens would
be set on a special 2 for 1 offer at a cost of £12.70 [ie a reduced rate of basically £6.35 each.]
To obtain the reduced rate we must book this year,but more about such things if sufficient numbers can be obtained.
Prior to Public entry at 11 am Photo's right in front of the House will be permitted at no further charge,our cars will be displayed in a horseshoe type line up on the manicured slope
of the main approach lawn which is right in front of the House.
A maximum of 6 Car related trade stands are allowed at a chargeable rate of £25.00 for the day,the houses facilities which include restaurants,ice cream sales and gift shop are all
available to those that fancy a nibble or want to splash some cash.
Have a look at www.burghley.co.uk and let me know what you think and we'll take it from there.
Many thanks,
Ed.

efforts you put in for our enjoyment at Hever.
