    A day like no other :)
    Had an absolute blast, enjoyed everisecond of the event, if you love cars/driving you'll definitely love it, I highly recommend it, and the High Speed ridealong they take you at the end of the day is really really impressive and you get a glimpse into what rally driving really is and how fast they're going. P.S. it looks slower in videos than real life :)

    Full day rally experience
    This experience was bought for a birthday. Booked in plenty of time and on the day received a briefing before lots of chance to practise newly taught techniques by the friendly instructors and staff who made tea and coffee all day for drivers and spectators. After lunch chance to drive the four wheel drive Subaru around the full course before a high speed passenger ride. Then to finish off, some timed laps against each other. Total of 9 drivers which was not too many as still got plenty of time behind the wheel and instruction. Take your own lunch. An amazing experience to put a smile on your face and gain some skills. Staff were amazing!

    1 day rally experience
    From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, the staff couldn't do enough for us. The cars are tip top, from the rear wheel drive to the 4wd on the course. The drivers made us feel like big kids!

    Absolutely amazing!
    Absolutely brilliant! This was a birthday present for my daughter and she loved every minute. Can’t wait to go again. The staff are all so friendly and lovely. As spectators we thoroughly enjoyed it. Definitely recommend paying for a ride in the rally car, worth every penny. Don’t think this could have been any better! You have to try this.

    A M A Z I N G day!
    This is a fantastic day out for any motor enthusiast. The team is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, giving you all the tuition needed to get out and drive. You definitely get your fill in terms of driving time and can choose to go out and run without your instructor when you feel you are ready. The icing on the cake was the Womens Day even with superstar Sara Williams driving all participants in her competition car at competition pace around the large course. A M A Z I N G day!

    Wonderful Birthday present for a driving Nut!
    The day was absolutely wonderful and certainly lived up to my expectations! All of the staff are very helpful, friendly, knowledgable and so supportive. The day was full from arriving at 9.15am to leaving at 4.15pm. It was great to get plenty of practice (a rolling schedule in the 2 cars all day) in the cars for the slalom course ready for the timed run! The "extreme" run in the "full on" 4 x 4 Subaru was so adrenaline filling. Helped greatly with James "Wozzi" giving guidance and encouragement to drive the car in the way it was designed!. This was further enhanced when the "High Speed Run" in the 4 x4 Subaru showed how it is really done by a proper practiced rally driver!! Great facilities and plenty of tea and coffee throughout the day. I and my fellow drivers all left the site with smiles and grins wide across our faces. Memorable also was the delight an the faces of the non drivers after they returned from the High Speed Run in the rally car round the stage. Thoroughly recomend!

    Brilliant Rallying Experience
    This was my son’s 21st Birthday present and he absolutely LOVED it from start to finish. What a brilliant bunch of people who run it… lots of opportunities to drive and practice rallying skills, including a proper mountain stage too! Fantastic advice/instruction from James (professional rally driver) and all topped off with a very competitive (but friendly) time trial at the end of the day. The improvement made my everyone during the day was incredible. My son is desperate to go back ASAP. Do not hesitate to book this… it’s perfect for anyone… there were older adults too, who I know had an absolute blast. Thank you to everyone at the Phil Price Rally School for making it such an awesome day!

    Best surprise birthday present ever!!!
    From the moment we arrived at the rally school until the moment we left the whole day and experience was absolutely amazing. All the staff were fantastic so welcoming and accommodating throughout the day they couldn’t do enough for all the drivers and guests. There was plenty of time in the cars throughout the day with the rolling 2 cars constantly out on the track and excellent tuition by John and Sara to improve the laps each time. In addition there was the opportunity to experience the dual control rally with expertise advice on handling the car through the course being supplied by James. The friendly, but also competitive timed laps was a great end to the day where everyone could see just how much improvement we all made throughout the day. The high speed run through the course with James was a fantastic experience you could then see how the professionals actually do it. My wife also had the opportunity to go out in the high speed run she was very nervous but it loved it the on her face said it all when she got out of the car! Can’t wait to get back there soon, thank you for making it one of the best experience days I’ve ever had.

    Kind staff and fun day!
    Such an awesome experience! A professional team which will explain everything you can learn in a fun way. What a difference it made when Rob sat next to me to give all the tips & tricks! The ride in the blue Subaru with John at the weel when you go on the bigger rally track is out of this world :) A day to remember!

Fantastic day! I booked the rally experience day for my son's 21st present, but my husband, daughter and her boyfriend also took part. I did a lot of research for the genuine thing and the Phil Price Rally School was the only company I found with no criticism, only praise!
John has a great sense of humour and is a lovely guy. He made sure everyone was happy and enjoying themselves. The rest of the crew were brilliant too and were on the ball, working so hard to make sure everything ran smoothly for a successful day which it was!
We hired the in car cameras for £40 each for the full day and most of the spectators paid for a passenger ride around the full course with John for £25.
It was a full on day! I was concerned there would not be enough driving as my son was initially reluctant at how much waiting around and watching there would be especially for the cost, but I think this Rally School cannot be beat for the time you get in the car! Sometimes we couldn't even keep up with our places!
The Phil Price Rally School is a very professionally run business, regularly checking the cars and maintaining them, and adhering to safety precautions. I would highly recommend this experience day.
My daughter's boyfriend said he would be back next year with his brother and another participant's son said he would also be back to have a go.
Great banter with the staff, such nice people and a fab day was had by all. No regrets. Thank you to John, Rob, Steve and Mark for all your hard work and leaving us with such great memories, all on photos and videos!

What an amazing day!!

The whole day was planned to absolute perfection!
The discussions were very interesting, efficient but kept short so all information could be retained.

Started off the day by getting kit on and straight into the red cars which kept running throughout the whole day!
Good amount of assistance from the instructors (John, Elewyn, James and Nicky) when you needed it. Very positive feedback throughout your drives and pointers as needed!
Everyone made such a improvement throughout the day, it was a delight to see.

Throughout the morning, everyone got a 1-1 drive with James in the Subaru around the stages in the rally car. James gave pointers and very helpful information throughout.

We all brought our own lunch and ate it with everyone in the viewing area (very warm and good view of the track if you didn’t want to be outside too!)

Into the afternoon, the red cars continue which was lovely to be able to watch everyone make so much progress.

The drivers all had the experience to drive the rally stages with the co driver (James) giving them pace notes and huge amounts of encouragement!

As well as all drivers (included), Any spectators could opt for a ride in the high speed rally ride too which was worth every penny!

We also purchased the view point camera for £50 in the morning and the quality of the videos was brilliant.

Finished the day with a timed race with everyone in the red cars.

Absolute delight.

Fantastic day!
Bought as a birthday present, and couldn’t have wished for better!
Amazing venue, lots of driving, fantastic hospitality, including guests just watching!
Was very much worth the money and would recommend anyone who wants a rally driving experience to come here.

I think we will defiantly be going back!

Thank you for an amazing day.

I had a rough expectation of the day from various videos posted on social media. However, the day greatly exceeded my expectations. The day was very well organised and even though nine people are experiencing the day there was little time to ‘laze’ around. The school turned me from a complete novice on sliding a rally car around a corner to one that was mildly competent at the end. The day’s pinnacle is the drive of the full blown rally car around a stage….what a blast! This was followed by one of the ‘tutor’ rally drivers taking you on the stage at light speed. I realised that my, drive of the rally car, was a Sunday drive compared to theirs. I would whole heartedly recommend this experience to anyone interested in what driving a rally car is really like. Great venue, team and organisation.

Amazing experience. The staff looked after me from start to finish, and so helpful. Would recommend to anyone who loves cars and thrills, started with a practice track to driving a full off road track then taken off for a full throttle rally drive by a pro (scary but worth it) thanks again

An experience like no other.
A special exclusive womens day.

From the moment we arrived we were greeted with smiles and encouragement. The facilities are more than adequate and reflect this exciting motorsport.

The instructions and guidelines given were very easy to understand and relevant for the day, and without any delay my wife was in the driving seat and driving the track.

All the instructors were friendly and knowledgeable, my wife was at ease and was speechless after her first drive (apart from some choice swear words).

Plenty of driving time throughout the day with different instructors and so much information given made the experience second to none.

Tasty refreshments throughout the day, and a lovely lunch with requested vegetarian options.

My wifes highlight of the day was driving the forest track in the 4WD Subaru, something that she has wanted to do and now can tick that off her bucket list.

The passenger seat ride with Sara was amazing, a very talented driver, her enthusiasm for her sport truly showed. A role model for all participants on this exclusive womens day.

I highly recommend the onboard camera hire which gives you a permanent visual record of your day. Really great to show everyone how amazing the experience is, well worth the extra money.

I would highly recommend this experience the professionalism of John, Tom, James and Sara was amazing, backed up by the support of Kirsty and Sophie the day could not have been better.

There is absolutely no other experience like this!

Wow! I've been on a lot of track days over the years doing a wide variety of motor sports, but none of them came close to this. It's a great setup, with really friendly staff and instructors. You get plenty of time behind the wheel to practice and be coached, so by the end of the day, you really feel like you've learnt a lot. The main track is where you spend most of your day in a rear-wheel drive Subaru, learning how to prefect your drifting techniques on a muddy and slippery surface. Then in between this sessions, you're also out on the main rally route, with the instructor - sometimes he's driving, then you get a turn behind the wheel. It's the only experience I've had where you're really encouraged to push the car as hard as you can. "Keep pushing" and "trust me" were the 2 main phrases from the instructor as you fly around the track at much faster speeds that you'd normally be able to manage. I really wish I'd gone for the video option for this part alone - it would have been well worth it. The passenger session towards the end of the day on this route was the icing on the cake. It's unbelievable how fast they go, yet still are in complete control of the car. If you feel you've been let down by other similar experiences, then I'd strongly suggest you give this one a go...you won't be disappointed.

I was bought this rally experience for my 60th birthday by my wife and she also paid for a friend as well , what a day from the time we got there and the way home it was chucking it down, but we needn’t have worried everyone of the staff were brilliant very friendly. I didn’t really know what to expect I thought a couple of turns around the track and that would be it but how wrong could I be , from just after a de-brief of do’s and dont’s it was a group of 9 of us name on the board then off two Subaru rally cars big track between tyres then first one off on your own 3 laps go as fast as you want then back in , next one out and that’s how it went real quick then next go out with an instructor tell what to do then 3 laps with him and he told you if you were anygood then that’s how it went. Then we went out for a passenger ride in a different Subaru a more rally prepped up one around another track through the woods a lot longer and we’re told after dinner we would be driving it through the woods what an experience that was , everyone had a turn at that and we thought that was good but hey up he went and got another Subaru I think it was his Sunday best and he gave us all a passenger ride at full throttle just like it would be in a proper rally, if that didn’t make your arse twitch nothing would. Then when everyone one had there turn at that we had a little timed race between ourselves. It was a wonderful experience and the rain added a little extra to it I think more slipping and sliding.Very professionally run a great day out for all ability’s.

Amazing experience with amazing instructors! - welcomed on arrival by John, what a phenomenal driver & all round good guy.
The lovely Julie kept the day running smooth, couldn’t do enough for everyone & topped mugs with tea & coffee all day!
Marc & Drew track side were so friendly, knowledgeable & full of positive encouragement, great guys nothing was too much trouble. Teaching, changing tyres, wetting the track constantly.
But the final word needs to go back to John, balls of steal… encouraging me to drive flat out with him as co driver in the 4wd Subaru and the high speed passenger ride was unreal.
We’ll be back, huge thanks to the team!

It was a really great experience! Had lots of fun driving rally cars and being driven is them! The cars themselves were great to drive, they’re fully kitted out with a roll cage and everyone is given helmets! I’m 6’7 and 130kg and fitted fine for the most part!
