Mendips Tour - 22nd & 23rd April
Posted: Wed Nov 30, 2016 11:39 am
Just an initial shout out that a tour weekend on the Mendips and North Somerset is being arranged on the Saturday and Sunday of this weekend.
Current Plans:
Friday - Arrival to the Double Tree By Hilton, Cadbury House Hotel, Congresbury, North Somerset (Please see details below). You are free to plan for other accommodation.
Saturday - Tour starting from hotel to include the winding Mendip Hills and Gorges, local lakes and reservoirs, Wells Cathedral and of course the home of Cheddar Cheese. There is also being planned a tour of Thatchers Cider Farm with tasting before the tour ends back at the hotel.
Sunday - Today we will be joining the BRIMAR Lions charity tour which has a £12.00 per car entry fee that goes to charity. This tour starts next door to the hotel and will cover the back roads around North West Somerset and end up on Clevedon Sea Front, which means easy access to the M5 etc when this day finishes between 1500-1600. This days route is not pre announced and so you will on get it on arrival at the day of the event, so hope your map reading skills are OK. This is the "Drive day" and so the event is always well supported with over 100 cars of different ages - the JOC is being welcomed with open arms and the organisers have indicated that we will get good exposure with the TV and press that feature the event.
Full details of the Saturday will be announced closer to the time.
It is hoped that a variety of cars / people from the Wessex region will join on either or both days.
Costs for the tour will be advised in the new year but we know that the BRIMAR event is £12.00 and we are waiting to hear about other options we are adding.
The hotel base for those not in the region is:
Doubletree by Hilton Cadbury House, Frost Hill, Congresbury, Bristol, BS49 5AD
Reservations will need to be made direct with the hotelat the following special rates for the allocation of rooms we are currently holding. Please quote "Jensen Owners Club" when booking on Tel : 01934 837 233
Double room bed and breakfast £119.00 per night
Single room with breakfast £109.00 per night.
There are obviously other alternatives but that will be up to individuals to make that choice.
So more details next year but look forward to seeing some of you on the tour...
