Designing the perfect supercar weekend in the UK.
The best supercar weekends aren't about ticking boxes or maximising mileage. They're about balance: dramatic scenery, quality roads, considered stops, and the kind of accommodation that feels like a destination in itself.
Whether you're celebrating a milestone, exploring the UK in something exceptional, or simply creating space for a proper drive, here's how to design a weekend that feels complete.
Start with the right vehicle
Your choice of supercar sets the tone for the entire weekend. A Rolls-Royce Ghost delivers serene long-distance comfort for Cotswolds touring, while a Ferrari 488 GTB brings visceral theatre to Welsh mountain passes.
For first-time supercar drivers, our guide on what to expect in a supercar covers seating position, visibility, and throttle response essentials.
The Cotswolds Circuit: Villages & Vistas
Base yourself in Oxford or Bath and trace the golden-stone villages via Burford, Stow-on-the-Wold, and Bourton-on-the-Water. The A44 from Oxford to Chipping Norton offers sweeping views without the traffic intensity of motorways.
Stay: Thyme near Lechlade or Calcot Manor near Tetbury – both offer secure parking and the kind of understated luxury that complements a weekend in something special.
North Wales: Evo Triangle & Beyond
The legendary B4501, A543, and A5 triangle around Betws-y-Coed has earned its reputation through flowing corners, elevation changes, and minimal interruptions. Arrive early Saturday morning to experience it before weekend traffic builds.
Extend the route south toward Cardiff via the A470 through Snowdonia National Park – one of the UK's most cinematically beautiful drives.
The Scottish Highlands: Space & Silence
Collect your vehicle in Edinburgh or Glasgow, then head north via the A82 alongside Loch Lomond and through Glencoe. The dramatic landscapes demand a vehicle that can match the theatre – a Bentley Flying Spur or Aston Martin DB11 feels perfectly calibrated here.
Overnight: The Fife Arms in Braemar or Inverlochy Castle near Fort William – both understand the needs of guests arriving in exceptional vehicles.
Peak District Loop: Sheffield to Bakewell
Starting from Sheffield, the Snake Pass (A57) delivers challenging corners and moorland vistas. Continue via Castleton, Bakewell, and return through the A6 – a 90-mile loop that feels utterly remote despite its proximity to major cities.
Timing & Logistics
Collection: Friday evening allows you to familiarise yourself with the vehicle before setting off Saturday morning. Our pre-delivery preparation process ensures every car is delivered in pristine condition with a full briefing.
Avoid peak times: Saturday mornings on rural A-roads offer the best blend of light traffic and good visibility. Sunday afternoons tend to be busier as weekend visitors return home.
Fuel strategy: Supercars are thirsty, especially on spirited drives. Plan refuelling stops in market towns rather than motorway services – the stop becomes part of the experience.
What to pack
- Soft luggage: Supercars have limited boot space. One weekend bag per person is ideal.
- Sunglasses: Essential for low autumn/winter sun.
- Phone mount: For navigation without blocking visibility.
- Driving shoes: Thin-soled shoes improve pedal feel and control.
Making it memorable
The best weekends aren't about speed – they're about immersion. Stop for lunch at country pubs with terraced gardens where you can park within view. Allow time to simply sit in the car with the engine off, taking in the location.
Consider documenting the journey: a few photos at scenic viewpoints, notes about standout moments, or simply mental snapshots of the stretches where everything aligned – the road, the light, the machine.
After the weekend
Return the car Sunday evening or Monday morning, depending on your booking. Our team conducts a joint vehicle inspection, discusses highlights of your journey, and ensures you leave with nothing but the memories.
