Old Warden

Flying vistors are always welcome at OW - call 01767 627288 and listen to the brief.

For an organised fly-in I am sure that a proper guided tour could be arranged. Ths takes you behind the scenes and the barriers.

It is a special place and a must for anybody with even the remotest interest in old planes.

FOr the kids and maybe less enthusiastic partners there is always the superb new kids adventure playground (absolutely free!) - the Falconry Centre and the Swiss Gardens.

Accomodation is always possible on site and a lot cheaper than you might think.

Call The Shuttleworth Lodge on 01767 626200 to check it out.

THere are rooms in the old Mansion, with separate bathrooms (huge deep baths, torrential showers!) and wonderful views. If you like things a bit more comfortable then there is the Chris Smart Suite. All romms are en-suite.

A great weekend break at little money.

You can arrange a formal function there too if you want. THey often have wedding parties there.
