I'm staying at Orton Hall in Peterborough which is good hotel and has
private (and hidden away) parking.

http://www.bestwestern.co.uk/hotels/orton-hall-hot...

I stayed there last year and it was about 10-15 mins from Burghley House
if I remember correctly.

Not the cheapest, but you can get a good room and meals included for 87
pounds or so if I remember correctly.

I'm sure that will be a popular option again.

Orton Hall is also nice (less than a mile from my office where I'm typing this!).

Last year quite a few people stayed in Stamford. Lovely town, plenty of pubs and places to eat and less than 5 mins from Burghley.

If you'd prefer something with a more rural outlook there are some great places in Rutland. Trying searching around Rutland Water and work outwards from there. I'm local so if you find somwhere you like let me know the details and I'll tell you what I know about it wink

That's a shame. It is a really big event.

However, the Bespoke event has lots of free food and nearly all the local
active TVR members go to it, so at least try to make that one biggrin

I wouldn't get your hopes up to much knowing alex (sorry mate)

Unfortunately I won't be there this year as my car will be in the date hands of surfaces and design having its paint sorted.

That's fine. I'm not 100% sure myself it will be there as it is going in
for a 5.0 black rebuild sometime next year.

Hi Alex,,
Are you anything to do with the event? Do you think the organisers are needing volunteers this year?
Cheers,
Martin

Hi Martin, nope, nothing to do with the event myself, but I can touch base with the office to see if they want help on the day biggrin

Just a bump to bring this to peoples attention smile It's been a bit low-profile on here lately.

I may be going daft,( alright, I know I am! ) but I can't seem to find any mention of when the gates to Burghley are actually open. Anyone know???

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the Rumble tomorrow as well as the big gathering on Sunday after a hearty breakfast.

Let's hope the weather plays nicely. Don't forget your Factor 50 sunblock wink

Glen, that's because everyone has been signing up for the main event (full details in this topic). hehe

Apart from the factor 50 don't forget to bring your Cement Works of Europe spotters book wink

Something else which may interest you and Austin is that I've been contacted by a TVR owner who is bringing a mate on the Rumble. His mate drives a Healey...
