A Hampshire country hotel has launched a classic car package that includes an overnight stay in an old chauffeur garage, tasting menu experience and a selection of iconic British sports cars for hire.
The Montagu Arms, located in the heart of the New Forest and a stone’s throw from the Beaulieu Motor Museum with its world-class collection of vintage cars, will start hosting petrolheads with a luxurious package of dreamy treats.
Guests can enjoy a thrilling spin through winding country roads, passing ancient woodlands with roaming wildlife and charming historic villages.
A series of iconic British sports cars will be available for hire from Beaulieu Garage, including a striking red 1966 Jaguar E-Type; a historical favourite with the potential speed of up to 150mph; a 1967 Austin Healey 3000 MK III; considered the most powerful of the ‘Big Healey’ series or the Gardner Douglas 427 Cobra.
Come evening, savour a seven-course tasting menu with paired wines in the award-winning Terrace Restaurant, where dishes will include organic seasonal produce from the surrounding Hampshire countryside alongside ingredients hand-picked from the hotel’s bountiful kitchen garden.
For a blissful night’s sleep, retreat to your Courtyard Deluxe Room or Courtyard Studio Suite, each complete with a spacious lounge area, oversized freestanding bathtub and private terrace.
