Yes, there is free parking available at the meeting point on Kirklington Road, near Farnsfield. We’re located just off the A617 heading towards Newark—200 yards from the A614 roundabout. Once you’re nearby, look out for signage and our team. Please note that sat navs don’t always take you to the exact entrance, so it’s a good idea to double-check the directions beforehand. We suggest allowing a bit of extra time to ensure you arrive on schedule and don’t miss any of your session time. ### What does the full day 4x4 training course cover? The course begins with a classroom session where you’ll learn about vehicle preparation, the workings of 4-wheel drive systems, and essential off-road driving techniques suitable for typical UK conditions. This theory section lasts between one and two hours and lays the foundation for your practical training. After the classroom portion, you’ll spend the rest of the day applying these skills behind the wheel of a Land Rover Discovery TD5. You’ll drive through a variety of off-road terrain under the close supervision of a BORDA-trained instructor, who will offer personalised guidance to build your confidence and ability. ### Do I need previous off-road driving experience to join the course? No prior experience is necessary. The course is designed for beginners as well as those who want to improve their existing off-road driving skills. The instructor will tailor the session to your current level and guide you step-by-step. Anyone with a full UK driving licence and an interest in learning how to handle 4x4 vehicles in off-road conditions can benefit. The practical approach ensures you get hands-on experience with support throughout the day. ### Is a full driving licence required to participate? Yes, all participants must hold a full driving licence valid in the UK. This is essential as the course involves driving on private off-road terrain using a vehicle on public roads to access the site. If you do not hold a full licence, you won’t be able to take part in the driving elements of the course. Passengers are not permitted on this training as it is focused on developing individual driving skills. ### How long is the course and what is included in the day? The full day runs for approximately six hours, including a 30-minute break for lunch. During this time, you’ll get a blend of classroom theory and practical driving, ensuring a balanced learning experience. Lunch is not provided, so you’ll need to bring your own food and refreshments. The schedule is designed to maximise driving time while allowing a break to rest and recharge. ### What kind of terrain will I be driving on? The off-road driving takes place on a private woodland course featuring a variety of surfaces such as muddy tracks, gravel, slopes, and water crossings. These conditions reflect the types of challenges you might encounter on UK off-road routes. The course is designed to be safe yet challenging enough to teach you essential vehicle control and off-road techniques. Each section offers a different test of your skills, from managing inclines to navigating slippery patches. ### Can I bring friends or family to watch the course? Spectators are welcome to attend, but it’s best to check in advance to confirm if there is space available at the site. The woodland location has limited parking and viewing areas, so it may not always be suitable for large groups. While friends and family can support you, only registered participants are allowed on the driving course itself. Safety is paramount, so all attendees must follow instructions and remain in designated areas. ### What should I wear on the day? Comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing is recommended, ideally clothes that can get dirty or muddy. Footwear should be sturdy with good grip to handle the outdoor environment and vehicle ingress/egress safely. Layers work well due to variable UK weather, and waterproof jackets are advisable. No specialised equipment is needed as the vehicle and safety gear are provided. ### Will I receive a certificate after completing the course? This is a non-certificated course designed purely for skill development and personal improvement. If you require formal certification for work or professional purposes, you would need to enrol on one of the BORDA Basic, Standard, or Higher-level accredited courses instead. The focus here is on practical ability and understanding, with the instructor providing feedback to help you build confidence rather than issuing official qualifications. ### Can I choose between manual or automatic vehicles? The course uses Land Rover Discovery TD5s which are available in both manual and automatic versions. You can express your preference when booking, though availability is subject to demand and may not always be guaranteed. Your instructor will assist you in handling whichever vehicle you use, ensuring you are comfortable and confident regardless of transmission type. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot-2025-07-09-151610-1.png - **Gallery image count**: 13 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
