We are excited to have the Veteran Car Club GB Northeast Section visiting us here at Chillingham Castle next week

On Wednesday 2nd August, 20 pre-1919 cars will be arriving here at 10am for a coffee break before continuing their journey.

If you would like to come along and have a look at the cars, talk to the drivers and get some great photos of some very beautiful and very old cars, we will be opening our gates at 9.45am ready for their arrival and our tearoom will be open from 10am.
The castle will open at 11am as usual.

The Veteran car club encourages the USE, restoration, preservation, and maintenance of Veteran and Edwardian vehicles.
A true Veteran car is classed as a vehicle built up to and including December 1904.
An Edwardian car is classed as a vehicle built from 1905 up to and including December 1919.
The vehicles are more than interesting to drive and maintain, we mostly like to use them as intended when bought new.
Our events are organised to be family friendly very social and relaxed (unless you break down!).
Some early cars can command a high resale value, but most are affordable and can cost less than a new family saloon.
The club is open to all, you don't have to own a car to join and help on events, come along and view early motoring's great feats of engineering, you don't often get the chance to get up close to vehicles from the advent of the motor car, all are well over 100 years old, we all like talking about our vehicles so come and have a look at them while you can.

We are excited to host SOTON LEJOG on 27th June at Chillingham Castle whilst they complete their mammoth cycling adventure from Land’s End to John O’Groats. By the time the SOTON LEJOG team reach us, they would have travelled 1000km and cycling for 8 days!

SOTON LEJOG is a charity event founded by Molly and her teammates at Southampton university triathlon and cycling clubs who have decided to cycle around 1700km (1100m) across the country in 14 days to raise money for FND Hope UK. This charity helps individuals like Molly with FND (Functional Neurological Disorder) which is an illness where the signals from the brain and the nervous system become jumbled. Up to 100,000 people in the UK have FND, and it is as debilitating as epilepsy, stroke, or multiple sclerosis, however is unknown in the medical world, with little research and no NHS treatment. Many individuals with FND become paralysed and severely unwell.

More can be found on their social media or website, and if you would like to donate their GoFundMe link can be found below. https://linktr.ee/sotonlejog

We wish the team the best of luck and are looking forward to hosting you!
