Bring your MG or just the shopping daily driver the aim of the event is to have a social weekend. This year allows you to choose what suits you best and join us at any point. Indeed, if you wish to arrange your own accommodation and join us for the runs that is equally fine. This year we are staying at the four-star Inn on the Lake. This award winning 4-star hotel in Glenridding enjoys one of the most spectacular settings in the Lake District, in 15 acres of grounds with lawns sweeping to the shores of Lake Ullswater. One of the finest Ullswater hotels, the Inn on the Lake has 47 en-suite rooms with most having breath taking views of Lake Ullswater or looking towards the magnificent Helvellyn. The Hotel is owned by a Classic Car enthusiast who regularly competes on events like the Flying Scotsman Rally.

With three formal starting locations to the North, South and West of Bristol, the run will send members on a meander through the surrounding countryside ending at Chew Valley Lake for lunch in the tearoom, takeaway fish and chips on the terrace or a picnic – whatever takes your fancy! If you’d rather make your own way there, either individually or perhaps as a small group from your Natter or Register or local neighbourhood, then that’s fine too.
