Escot Events 2007

Escot Events are varied, interesting, enjoyable and spectacular. Take your pick from the selection below. Many of them sell out very quickly, so make sure that you book now to avoid disappointment and enjoy the fun all year round.

QPOD SAFARI WEEKENDS AT ESCOT

Experience a 45 minute guided, self driven, off-road tour of Escot in these 2-seater fun vehicles. See parts of the Estate not normally open to the public. Each vehicle holds one driver and one partner/child. This is not a quad bike, or a bubble car, but something in between - a must experience!

Please phone 01404 822188 to reserve your safari.
