A full day out - and off grid - in the Northamptonshire countryside with a difference awaits you on this full day's session driving in a 4x4 off road vehicle! The venue you'll be heading to the day is in the grounds - over 25 acres - surrounding Rockingham Castle near Corby in Northamptonshire, at a well established and respected 4x4 off roader centre, run by its founder, Vince, who will be your instructor for the day and has years of experience driving four wheel drives behind him. At the start of your day, you'll receive a full safety briefing on what to expect and to be aware of. And you'll get to explore the natural beauty of the 25 acres surrounding Rockingham Castle, and all the challenges they present to the Land Rover Defender 110 that you'll be driving, from deep troughs and steep inclines, to side slopes and hair-raising elements of the course, including the White Knuckle Ride and Death Valley. Lunch is also included on this day, plus for an additional fee you can bring along guests - all to make your time going off grid truly unforgettable!
