It's also your chance to soak up the unique atmosphere of the world's only sporting event set entirely to a period of time.

The two couples stay in West Sussex one night, and in London for another three nights. While in London, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars provides custom sightseeing tours, theater tickets...even a wine dinner at Gordon Ramsey's London restaurant paired with Hartford Court wines.
And at the end of the trip you will also enjoy a rare and collectible treat: two 3 Liter bottles of 2003 Hartford Court Seascape Vineyard Pinot Noir.

Staged on the Goodwood grounds in West Sussex, home to the environmentally-friendly Rolls-Royce Motor Cars plant, Goodwood Revival remains unique as the world's most authentic historic motor race meeting. It is the only of its kind to be staged entirely in the romantic legendary circuit untouched by modernization, looking almost exactly as it did when it staged Britain's first post-War motor race in 1948.
Hartford Court Seascape Vineyard sits on a panoramic ridgetop west of the town of Occidental, in the Sonoma Coast AVA. The vineyard abuts an old redwood grove and faces Bodega Bay and the Pacific Ocean - an extremely cold spot where picking comes as late as November. This cold (and often foggy) coastal climate preserves the natural acidity in the berries helping delineate the flavors and expression of coastal terroir in the wine, while increasing the potential for long and graceful aging.
