National Drive It Day is the date where all classic car owners are encouraged to take their vehicles out onto the roads promoted by the FBHVC.
This year the BVAC members will enjoy a run from Milestone Garden Centre, Newtown St. Boswells through the Border’s countryside of the Ale, Ettrick, Yarrow and Tweed valleys to the destination of The Barony Castle Hotel, Eddlestone where they can enjoy afternoon tea in the private dining room of the hotel. There is space for a maximum of 60 people for the afternoon tea and it will cost £25.00 per person payable to the Club bank account.
DONT DELAY IN BOOKING AS THE HOTEL REQUIRES CONFIRMED NUMBERS BY 14TH APRIL.
You don’t have to book afternoon tea to enjoy the drive!
All members are welcome to join in the drive – which is free to participate, and everyone will receive a tulip map book for directions of the route and a display plaque for their car. The Barony Castle has within their grounds the attraction of the famous stone map of Scotland created by Polish soldiers billeted in the original house, so there’s another reason for coming along.
Arrive at Milestone as early as you want in order to get coffee or breakfast and catch up with the other members. The first car on the run will be sent off at approximately 11:30 and even on a gentle and unhurried drive should take about 2 hours for the 61 mile distance of the route. Afternoon tea is at 2.30pm for those members who have booked.
