Verve Rally Terms.
“A briefing in London kicks-off proceedings, meeting your fellow Ververs and the collection of cars that will be joining for the rally. We then head to our first hotel at the foothills of Snowdonia.”
“A multi-award winning country house hotel in North Wales, with stunning views over unspoiled countryside and luxury four-star accommodation makes it one of the finest hotels in Wales. The original Lake Vyrnwy Hotel was built in 1890. In 1910 it was extended to coincide with the visit of the Prince of Wales (later that year to become King George V) to officially open the dam some 20 years after its completion. In the 1930’s as car ownership increased and travel became easier Lake Vyrnwy Hotel expanded yet again. In the 1990s, 100 years after it first opened, the current owners added yet more rooms and did so again in 2007 and the opening of Lake Vyrnwy’s luxurious Spa. Lake Vyrnwy Hotel and Spa has been owned and run by the Bisiker family for over a quarter of a century, incredibly they’re only the third owners in the hotel’s 125 year history.”
“Over the Snowdonia Rally we’ll be driving a sequence of some of the best (and often lesser known) roads that North Wales has to offer. We balance driving time (around 3.5hrs a day) on a collection of beautifully scenic and twisty A and B-roads with time to mingle, chill and enjoy our surroundings with the other Ververs.”
“Each Verve Rally seeks out special properties and this one is no exception. Created by Welsh architect Sir Clough Williams-Ellis, Portmeirion Village was designed to show how a naturally beautiful location could be developed without spoiling it, and that one could actually enhance the natural background through sympathetic development. The Aber Iâ estate had everything he had hoped for as a site for his architectural experiment: steep cliffs overlooking a wide sandy estuary, woods, streams and a nucleus of old buildings. Williams-Ellis acquired the site in 1925 and worked to complete his grand vision over the next 50 years, completing the Village as we know it today in 1976. But the history of Portmeirion started long before 1925. The Castell Deudraeth was recorded in 1188 by Gerald of Wales. It was later referenced as a ruins in the 17th and 18th century. After much restoration, it’s been restored into a gorgeous hotel and restaurant. The Verve group will be staying across the Portmeirion Village and Castell Deudraeth.”
“Prepare for flight. For the adventurous at heart, we’ll be popping in for some Zip-line action. Not just any Zip-line, but the world’s fastest (at over 100mph) and Europe’s longest (at 1555 metres) with 4 zip wires lined up side by side, you can enjoy the company (and perhaps small comfort) of flying over the Penrhyn Quarry with some friends!”
“Whether it's a haven of tranquillity in the jacuzzi overlooking Lake Vrynwy or opting for a treatment overlooking the Dwyryd Estuary in Portmeirion, if a bit of pampering is on the cards, you’re in the right place.” (Treatments billed individually)
Sunset paints a watercolour sky over the glistening sea.
“Over the Verve Rally Adriatic we have designed a sequence of some of the best (and often lesser known) roads in Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Montenegro. A combination of picturesque coastal roads, fast perfectly smooth flowing roads, mountains and lakeside. The sound of the supercar convoy echoing through the valleys is to behold. This is going to be an experience to savour.”
“We have sourced a stunning fleet of supercars to drive on Verve Rally Adriatic 2020. There is one car of each so early bookings are advised for the best selection. Speak with the team for latest availability”
“Our hotel is THE hotel in Santander. An establishment where style, tradition, luxury, location and widespread fame have come together to leave a hallmark of excellence and prestige, defining the heart and soul of Santander. The Eurostars Real, which faces the Playa de los Peligros beach, towers over the bay of Santander from atop the hill on which it stands, surrounded by its own gardens and resting in the heart of Santander's most peaceful and emblematic area, between the historic city centre and the Sardinero beach.”
“After a filling buffet breakfast we start our rally briefing to kick-off the proceedings.”
“The variety of terrain and quality of the roads have been a welcome surprise for many past Ververs. The north is lush and green with a changing landscape as we head further south. On this trip we&rspquo;ll be taking in the San Glorio Pass, driving the summit of Picos de Europa, the plains and vineyards of Castilla y Leon, driving the Sierra Guadarrama Mountains, and the city of Madrid. All on a hand-selected sequence of beautiful twisty tarmac.
The variety, vistas, freedom and quality of roads are, in a word, sublime!”
“Each Verve Rally seeks out special properties that are indicative of the region we're visiting. On this Spanish Escape we'll be staying in a number of unique properties such as the 5* property overlooking Santander coast-line or another which is one the best preserved Cistercian monasteries of the 12th century in Europe, beautifully renovated into a 5* property with thermal spa.”
“After a stunning drive from the mountains to the flat plains of the Duero region, we arrive at this remarkable property that will be our home for the following two nights. Situated amongst vineyards, this 5-star property with thermal spa is an enchanting oasis that was once a 12th-century Cistercian monastery.”
“A stunning drive through the plains of Castile & Leon, winding roads, sweeping bends and a mountain range before we park up in Madrid at our beautiful 5* spa hotel.”
“After arriving in Madrid the transporters are waiting for us. If you drove your own car on the rally, we can arrange for it to be sent back to London on a fully insured enclosed transporter. It'll arrive back in London on Saturday morning to a W3 postcode for collection. If you hired the supercar with us, it's time to hand back the keys. Limited availability on the transporter, speak with the team.”

Eurotunnel le Shuttle
Taking your own car to the Continent offers you total freedom and is one of the most convenient and economical ways of getting to the Continent! Plan a crossing time to suit your needs and enjoy the convenience of travelling to your destination with everything you need packed in your boot.
With a crossing time of only 35 minutes from Folkestone to Calais, Eurotunnel Le Shuttle offers the fastest Channel crossing with your car. Its reliable service operates round the clock, 365 days a year, taking the hassle out of travelling to the Continent. Choose from up to 4 departures an hour during peak periods - no other cross-Channel operator offers you more choice.
With its own motorway junction (11a M20), access to the Passenger Terminal couldn't be simpler. Prior to boarding the shuttles, you will pass through both UK and French frontier controls which means on arrival in France, you simply drive off the shuttle and onto the European motorway network.
Whilst onboard, relax in the comfort of your own car during the short crossing. The Eurotunnel experience is simple and hassle free - no wonder they are the preferred choice for over 1 million motorists each year.
Please note: Verve Rally has a policy of booking the larger car carriages of more than 1.85m high as this also gives extra width for performance cars.
Verve Rally was the first European rally to be truly carbon neutral.
For each rally we calculate our carbon footprint and fund the PATT Foundation to plant trees on our behalf (not carbon credits) to offset the carbon. These trees are planted through parts of Asia and Europe.
