The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

When is it?: Sunday 3rd September, 10.30am – 4.30pm

Where is it at?: Notcutts Woodford Park Garden Centre, Chester Road, Woodford, Stockport, Cheshire, SK7 1QS - see https://www.notcutts.co.uk/garden-centres/woodford-park

How much is it to get in?: it’s FREE! Members or non-members and their families are very welcome to attend. Traders, autojumblers and members of other clubs are also invited, there’s no charge at all.
Please register your car with Notcutts by emailing tewj@notcutts.co.uk . This is purely so that they can plan carparking space. No personal details will be collected or shared and car registration numbers will be deleted immediately after the event. Thank you for your co-operation.

So what’s it all about then?: It’s our annual get together, guaranteed to be the largest gathering of Dolomites, Toledos and FWD cars in the world! It’s our usual mix of informal concours, autojumble and regalia sales. Notcutts is a great place to visit for people of all ages, whether they’re classic car fans or not. A truly great day out for ALL the family – don’t miss it!

Accommodation
The local hotel to the Garden Centre is called the Deanwater Hotel. They can do a double room which is room only for £100 per night, extra £20 per room to have breakfast included. A single room is £85 room only.
They have availability for the weekend of the event but do have a function on, on the Saturday so they suggested to book early to avoid disappointment.
The hotel is literally 1 mile from the Garden Centre.
Address is:
The Deanwater Hotel
Wilmslow Road
Woodford
Cheshire
SK7 1RJ

Tel ; 01625 552906

Email , info@thedeanwaterhotel.co.uk

For anyone wishing to make a booking at The Deanwater please mention ‘Notcutts’ in the booking so that they know they are part of the car event and so get the special room rate.

There are various Premier Inns around Wilmslow and Handforth that could be booked as well but these would be standardd rates.

It's in my calendar. Bit of a long trip up from Reading along the M6 for a 51 year old car but I'm up for the challenge.

I know it's been held at pretty southern locations the last few years and we have plenty of members further north so not complaining, just observing and contemplating!

I hope to have a long weekend in the area as there are a lot of National Trust places in the area and the plan is to attend the event on the Sunday.

It would be good if some other club members are planning to do the same as we would be able to meet up.

Will also do a long weekend. I'm also planning to do the Avro Heritage Museum and the Quarry Bank Textile Mill, both of which are nearby and appeal to my "special" interests.

267 miles for me from Plymouth. Double for the return.

If you think it is too far to drive up and back in a day I have just been looking at the Stockport south Premier Inn and it is very expensive for the Saturday night but only £35 for the Sunday night so why not stay for the Sunday night and drive back on the Monday. With any luck if a number of us stay there we should be able to have a chat and possibly a meal together in the evening.

I'm fortunate that one of my brothers lives in Wilmslow, just a few miles from the event venue, so I'm staying with them the night before. My sister-in-law has just sent me this in an e-mail:
Forewarned is fore armed!

Thanks Alun! At least we can watch some cycling then! Let's hope they don't hang around too long.

Less than a week to go now, so looking forward to seeing a good number of club members on Sunday.

Jonathan has had a good response rate for registering vehicles and we have a number of visitors also attending with other classics, so it should be an interesting turnout of people.

See you on Sunday - let's hope the weather is kind to us.

Best Wishes

MC

Just an update on the bike race which will take place on Sunday.

The road outside Notcutts will be closed between 11.30- 12.30 for approx 50 minutes.

I am sure most visitors to our gathering will be onsite before 11.30, but it is worth bearing in mind.

I am sure the bikes will pass through quickly as the weather is looking kind for us all and hopefully the wind will be behind them too!

Kind Regards

MC

Its the Tour of Britain which passes the garden centre on Sunday morning. Its a rolling closure so the road will only be closed for 10 to 15 minutes while the race convoy passes.

All polished up ready for tomorrow, see you there.
