De Dion Bouton Club UK Summer Rally June 6-10th 2024
Jan 18 2024
DDB UK invites you to register for the Summer rally 2024 based at the Puckrup Hotel just north of Tewkesbury. The hotel is conveniently situated just half a mile from Junction 1 of the M50 and is accessible from the A38. There is plenty of parking for trailers and towing vehicles as well as our DDB cars. The hotel has both an indoor swimming pool and a Spa.
We have reserved 30 rooms for the rally dates and rally members need to book these directly with the hotel. The rooms will be held until 6th May and then released for general booking if not used. Early booking of these rooms is therefore advised. Once applications forms are returned with payment of the rally fee, a secure link will be e mailed allowing booking at the special rally rate of £159 for B&B per night for four nights. Alternatively you can ring the Puckrup Hotel direct and quote bedroom code 911. The club has a group booking for the evening meal at £35 per person with choice from a limited number of dishes from the Hotel menu for that night. We will choose our selection for the meal the night before. We ask you to pay the fee for meals at the time of registering for the rally.
You will be able to check in at the Hotel and DDB rally desk from Thursday afternoon at 3pm with Dinner from 7.30 pm in the evening.
