Driving Tips

 Following are some hints to help you plan your Country Drive:

Plan your itinerary to visit (at most) four sites per day

Remember that many sites are open seasonally and some year round, so if you can’t fit everything that interests you into Christmas Country Drive weekend, or if the weather makes travelling difficult, call ahead and plan to visit any time!

Shop, savour, relax, create lasting memories – we look forward to meeting you on a Country Drive this season
