Lympstone Manor is soon to once again be transformed into a car lovers paradise for Celebration of Speed 2019 – an event commemorating Michelin-starred chef patron Michael Caines' love of all things motoring. Following the success of 2018's event, this year marks its third consecutive year at the Manor.

Taking place on 3rd July at the luxury country house hotel, Celebration of Speed allows guests the exclusive opportunity to view the iconic Formula One supercars by ROKiT Williams Racing, formerly known as Williams Formula One, as well as meet the event's guest of honour Rob Smedley, most recently the Head of Performance at Williams Formula One. In addition, visitors in attendance will be able to enjoy an exciting line-up at Lympstone Manor's first ever music concert, adding a fun festival element to proceedings this year.

Joining Lympstone Manor from the track will be the Williams FW41 Formula One racing car that competed in the 2018 FIA Formula One World Championship, and the Williams Renault FW19 car from 1997.

Celebration of Speed will also host an array of cars from the finest brands in the industry from the likes of Porsche, BMW, MINI, Jaguar and Land Rover from the Helston Garage group, along with Mclaren, Aston Martin and Lamborghini; new additions to the event for this year will be Bridge Motorcycles' renowned collection.

Guests will also be able to indulge in an all-inclusive afternoon tea picnic and a selection of drinks on the picturesque hotel grounds from Chase Distillery, Nyetimber and Luscombe. Those looking to continue the celebrations in to the evening will be able to purchase dishes from the BBQ and drinks from the Exeter Brewery bar.

Notably, this year's Celebration of Speed marks an exciting addition for the Grade II listed mansion, with the hotel hosting their first ever music concert from 6.30pm until 11pm. Situated on the stunning Exe Estuary, the launch of Lympstone Manor's concert will also mark Michael Caines' milestone 50th birthday celebrations. Amongst the line-up for this year's event are renowned acoustic and folk singer-songwriter Steve Knightley of Show of Hands fame, and Adam and the Hat with Bill Ding & Skyscrapers.
