Beaulieu

Oct 29th - mostly fine and cool

We decided to go to Beaulieu the home of the National Motor museum and the Montague family.
The museum is simply phenomenal with cars and motorbikes which must be worth literally billions.

Loved this 4Ltr Bentley all set up for the Le Mans race.



And of course Malcolm Campbell's Bluebird with at least 4 other land speed record cars

Yes I lied again, YASH (Yet Another Stately Home). The Montegue's still live there but many of the rooms are open to visitors.

We also visited the remains of the Abbey in the grounds - that dates back to 1203








Finally we drove to Buckler's Hard where many of Nelson's ships were built - it's also on the estate and has changed little since 1750 or so.
And that should end (almost) the last Blog {:-))
