Itinerary

Sunday
On arrival at De Vere Beaumont Estate, you can park up in our dedicated parking then check in from 4pm in the White House Reception.

In the evening we’ll gather in the bar before sitting down for dinner in the main restaurant.

Monday - Windsor Castle
On leaving the hotel, cars will muster on Smith’s Lawn near the Guard’s Polo Club followed by a drive through the Great Park, down the Long Walk towards Windsor Castle. Cars will park in front of Cambridge Gate overlooking the Long Walk, where they will be reviewed by Lieutenant General Philip Jones CB CBE DL Constable & Governor of Windsor Castle, followed by an escorted walk into the Castle and tour the State Apartments. Guests will then enter the Moat Garden of the Norman Tower, the Constable & Governor’s residence. A reception drink will be served with a buffet lunch and the Constable & Governor will give a short talk about the history of the Castle. Guests will depart through the Moat Garden and be escorted to St George’s Chapel by 4 Military Knights of Windsor. Visitors will depart through Henry VIII gate.

In the afternoon there is a tour of St George's chapel, offering a glimpse into the traditions and legacy of the British monarchy. In recent times St Georges Chapel has been the centre of attention for weddings and funerals alike. Most notably the funerals of Prince Phillip in 2021 and Queen Elizabeth II in 2022, as well as the weddings of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Prince Edward and Sophie Rhys-Jones.

Monday Evening
After exploring Windsor Castle, we’ll return to the hotel before taking a short walk to the River Thames for a private evening cruise aboard the Queen of the Thames. With panoramic views, live music, and a BBQ buffet, this memorable experience will combine fine food, historic scenery, and lively entertainment as part of our IHM adventure.

Tuesday - Brooklands Museum
On the second day of IHM 2026, we will enjoy a scenic drive through Berkshire and Surrey villages before arriving at Brooklands Museum, the historic birthplace of British Motorsport and Aviation. Guests will be welcomed with refreshments in the private Napier Room, then explore the museum’s fascinating exhibits—including the Aircraft Factory, restored Wellington Bomber, and Motorsport Exhibition—before returning for a buffet lunch. There will be a chance for you to join the ‘Concorde Experience’ (see below). The day concludes with the unique opportunity to park your Healey on the finishing straight of Brooklands’ legendary banked track.

Brooklands was, for many years, the site of Vickers aircraft manufacturing, and you can enjoy its extensive aircraft displays as well as the historic racing track.

Wednesday
After breakfast, we say farewell until next time.
