Two trips in one, the lovely Swiss Garden with its Regency & Victorian garden and the Shuttleworth collection of early 20th century aircraft, cars buses and more.

 

 

The Swiss Gardens

Walk through ornate ironwork gates into a delightful Regency and Victorian layered garden and discover a green and pleasant idyll. There’s even a pair of peacocks waiting to strut their stuff just for you!

 

As well as being home to resident peacocks, ducks and other wildlife, the garden contains many examples of beautifully carved animals and birds.

 

 

The Shuttleworth Collection

Walking through the six huge hangars at Shuttleworth, you'll see how aviation design developed from Edwardian times up until the 1950s. Don't miss the 1909 Blériot XI, which, along with all of our aircraft, is still airworthy. It's the world's oldest flying aeroplane and it regularly takes the sky at our air shows.'

 

From early 20th century aircraft, cars, buses and motorbikes to steam engines and farm machinery, it's all here for you to discover. Our workshop is always open too, so pop in to say hi and watch us restoring these treasures.

Day Trip Departures

 

Timetable

  • Our timetables are unique, bookings are taken throughout the year, and we release the pickup times around a month before departure. This allows us to ensure our pickup routes are kept to a minimum and our days run to time.

  • Arrival and departure times in our brochure and on our website are a guideline and will be confirmed on your final confirmation.

  • On some trips we run Fast Track pickups, typically on coastal trips or those of some distance. This shortens the pickup times and gets you to the destination in good time.

  • Terms and Conditions can be found on our website or copies supplied upon request.
