Things to do in East Midlands

At seventy years young, this was an experience not to miss. The team at Langar were amazing especially my instructor Jamie. Would definitely recommend

Very quick and easy service

Great day at the Triumph Experience well worth the visit to see the motorcycle factory. Including its history and development since being bought back into manufacturing in the 70s by John Bloor who was a great local entrepreneur.

Venues were good

Had a lovely day in the spa and a nice treatment.

Opportunity to explore a new area with a two night stay away. We paid along with the red letter voucher for a fantastic location in historic Woodstock at The Bear

Lovely overnight experience fantastic location with very friendly staff

Great afternoon learning how perfumes are categorised and layered. A true sensory overload and an opportunity to learn and be creative. Thanks to the team for a well run session.

Kevin, out guide gave us an informative tour, giving us an absorbing insight into how the products (Triumph motorcycles) were created, designed, manufactured, assembled and distributed through the UK, Europe and in many countries across the world. He imparted detailed knowledge yet kept the group entertained with anecdotes and answered questions from the group fully and with good humour. We received a most stimulating description of how Triumph takes great care to produce high-quality motorcycles. The factory and warehouse were spotlessly clean, well-organised, and with an accent of safety for visitors and staff. The machinery was modern, with a well-controlled production process, through the use of digital provision of guides for workers on the factory floor, and recording of each step in the process. In addition, the reception space housed a vast range of Triumph motorcyles - road bikes as well as trials/scramblers - stretching back to the first motorcycle in 1902, and including a number of racing bikes, record-breakers, and bikes used in films, and ridden by celebrities. There were also Moto 2 bikes, and various new battery-electric models in addition to the ICE bikes. In addition, there was a pleasant cafe for a drink and a snack, and a well-stocked gift shop. I would say that our group was impressed by a set-up which was beyond what we might have expected. A rewarding visit, and worth a re-visit with friends.
