I finally had the opportunity to fulfill the need to drive a caterham, even if only for a weekend. We traveled over from NI on the Friday and stayed overnight at the Trochelhill guest house as recommended by yourself. Trochelhill is probably one of the best guest houses that we have stayed in. Trochelhill is a large Victorian country house... More

A fantastic day out in a Caterham by a real petrolhead. Boyd took us in, provided us with coffee and biscuits before explaining how the car works. Never once did he say to take it easy, encouraging us to enjoy our day in the fantastic 2 seater sports car. He provided routes, approximate mileage between places and knows the region... More

I was given a voucher for a day hire of a Caterham (after dropping several hints!), as I was after a unique driving experience. I'd previously driven a single seat race car at a track day experience, and wanted to experience the performance and handling that this had offered all over again, but felt limited by the allotted time and...

What a great weekend. The fun of picking up the car, and driving it around the Highlands of Scotland cannot be beaten. Even though not the warmest of weekends, we were never uncomfortable and stayed warm. The beauty of the landscape, and the superb engine note resonating, we just loved the whole thing. The great bit is the car is... More

A must for any car enthusiast. From start to finish the day was unforgettable. Boyd, our host, was excellent with a friendly, professional approach. The Caterham, the variety of roads in the Scottish Highlands and the scenery along with the weather gods being on our side made the experience unique and one I would have no hesitation in recommending. We... More

The marriage of the roads in this region and blatting about in a Caterham makes this a world class experience. We took a trip up to the North West of Scotland, taking in Tongue, Durness, Kylesku, Ullapool, Gairloch, Torridon, Applecross and Plockton. I'll be returning to Boyd for another hire as soon as possible. My cheeks are still aching from... More
