THE BORDERS TOUR
Monday 19th September to Friday 23rd September, 2022
Our Borders Tour is our first organised adventure in the North of England; carefully curated for owners of all classic Mercedes models. Whether you own a Pagoda or a nineties saloon, you’ll be comfortable with the route. The Borders Tour is an exploration of the northern borders including the North Lakes in Ullswater, Northumberland, the Borders and Edinburgh.
”Went on the Cotswold tour and had a fantastic time. Lovely hotels and routes. The staff were so helpful and always on hand. We met some lovely people and are looking forward to the Scotland tour.”
Sharon Murphy
EVENT HIGHLIGHTS
The tour kicks off from Keswick, where your first night will be enjoyed at the Borrowdale Hotel nestled away in the rolling hills of Cumbria. This will be your first evening of introductions, getting to know your fellow enthusiasts over a select menu prepared by the hotel’s esteemed chefs.
Heading east, we meander our way through the North Pennines, soaking in the beautiful surroundings and enjoying an array of sights en route to Derwent Manor Hotel, County Durham. From County Durham, we head north west through the unspoilt landscape of Northumberland National Park, skirting our way across to the Friars Carse Country House Hotel. Here we enjoy a whisky tasting session by local experts.
Following three nights enjoying the wilderness, we head north for Edinburgh, where we enjoy our last night together at Dunstane Houses. Here we will share stories from the trip over dinner and drinks.
Our final day of driving gives you the flexibility to take your individual route home, or drive in convoy with your new found friends. Day four is the chance to continue the detour and enjoy the sweet sound of your classic Mercedes-Benz; before returning to the hustle and bustle from whence you came.
