Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The full rally experience! Brilliantly organised day from start to finish, probably enhanced by the torrential weather! I have a new found respect for Roger Clark et al. Overall a brilliant day, would thoroughly recommend!

Fantastic! forget your EVO's and Impreza's, a rear-wheel drive mk2 escort on gravel is the best rallying fun.
The teachers are great too.

A truly fantastic one day experience in a classic MKII Ford Escort. Thanks to Rob - who was a very patient, helpful and generous instructor - I learnt so much about my driving, how to get the best from the car, plus the need to push back against those niggling doubts and of course completely disregard most things that you were taught to do. In the end I was very proud of my achievements and had so much fun as well. Cannot recommend highly enough. Did not want the day to end.

I did the one day rally course in the Nissan Micra. I wanted to learn more about how a front wheel drive car behaves on a loose surface for use on a circuit in the wet. It was great fun, Paul is an excellent coach and I achieved my aims. Now looking forward to the rain on a circuit!

Professional, fun, superb rally & motorsport tuition.
We booked a full day's 1 to 1 tuition at Bill Gwynne Rally School for our two sons (19 & 20). Dad wanted them to learn about car balance, prior to moving up from karts to motorsport in cars, in a safe, professional environment.
Initially, they were keen to go to a forest rally centre until they realised that they would not to capable or allowed to drive at speed like Colin McRae. I searched rally schools and luckily found Bill Gwynne which was, in fact, the first UK rally school, established decades ago and who had seen many race drivers through its doors. If you just want a rally experience, they do this too, and with the set up they have, it would be a fabulous venue for corporate team building events, birthdays etc.
For us though, we wanted the lads to be pushed, to learn and to enjoy themselves and Paul ensured all of this. They had real, bone fide champion instructors who were brilliant- encouraging, explained the techniques thoroughly and by the end of the day, the lads looked like they had been doing it for years! The day ended with a detailed assessment and a certificate.
The lads said the day was "lots of fun and i learned a lot, considering I didn't have much experience ".
If we lived nearer, we'd be here regularly, that I can guarantee!
Thank you to Paul, Dom and Ian - superb!!

An excellent half day driving the Escort over 15 laps round the course. Great fun spending a lot of time sideways with lots of opposite lock inlcuding 30 handbrake turns. Should have gone for the full day!

It looks easy but the quicker you get, the more the car comes alive. A thoroughly enjoyable and informative day. Had to resist the urge to drift around the roundabouts on the way home....
