Athelhampton House – Garden Party and picnic

We have again been invited by ’Bournemouth & Poole MGOC’ to attend their annual event at ‘Athelhampton House’ and have been offered our own pitch in the gardens of this fine historic 15^th Century Elizabethan Tudor Manor House.

The event attracts a fine collection of MGs and classic cars of all ages from other visiting car clubs, together with an assortment of stalls and trade stands.

We meet on the Sunday morning outside Chichester for the drive down to Athelhampton House, arriving at about 10.30am for tea & coffee or sausage & bacon baps in the on-site restaurant. Alternatively, those wanting a full English breakfast on route may stop at Haskins Garden Centre in Ferndown.

Club members may bring their own picnics. However, the on-site restaurant is open all day serving light breakfasts, meals and refreshments.

Advance booking is via Bournemouth & Poole’s web site, www.1020mg.org.uk at £12 per person for site entry, parking within our designated Club pitch, access to the gardens and discounted entry into the House. On the day admission is £15 per person, but may exclude parking on our Club pitch. Gates open at 10.00am. (Advanced tickets are available on the ticket button at the bottom of this screen)

An optional Sunday evening meal and a scenic route home are available.

There are no restrictions on numbers but we have been asked by our hosts to notify them on how many Chichester cars will be attending. To register your place and for more information, please email; colin.jessey@btinternet.com
