Eastnor is a great environment. Are you doing a full day? Hopefully you'll get over to the big wooded area and not just the "concrete obstacles". The muddy wading trenches are fun - did Eastnor a couple of times in my own RRS and the trenches were deep enough to get Defner drivers' feet wet in their cabs.

Been to Eastnor before and I agree it is definitely one of their best centres which is why I booked there again even though Luton Hoo is only 40-45 mins from me. Can't remember any artificial obstacles - we went to the hills and wooded area last time. Wife and kids were bored towards the end of the previous half day so no point in extending. Sounds like we should wear appropriate footwear as I have booked a Defender this time for a change! Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top

Maybe they don't use the concrete stuff on half days...choosing a Defender for your trip is a great idea. A bit stone age, of course, but the anti-stall system makes them very driveable in tricky conditions. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

I'll see you there Camelrock. Realised it's right at the end of school half term break so booked Plenty of time to decide whether to stay just Saturday night or make it a short break.

Looking at your profile pic you must be well equipped to tow me out if I make a mistake

Great day out!
LR Insurance cover was included as escorted off road event😀

Last time I went to Eastnor there were contrete obstacles with huge mirrors in one field on the course, mainly to show you that the cars can fly wheels and that the traction control/ABS can get you out of "cross axle" situations.

I hope so! I've got a letter from my insurer to say that we're covered for the day. Might be worth doing if you haven't already. Not sure if the organisers will check on the day.

Got a cottage booked for a week and the dogs are booked in to a local kennel for the Sunday. I think we'll be taking them for a play on the beach somewhere on Monday as payback for them being in kennels for the day. Smelly wet dogs in the car. Lovely!

Just hope the RRS doesn't throw any wobblies between now and then...!  2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Good stuff, keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn't throw any wobblers for you then! Yes my insurance covers me for the day so all sorted there.
