Our Training Venues

Nationwide 4x4 has control and exclusive use of three major off road driving sites and courses.  Each site is recognised and registered by LANTRA Awards.

1. Severn Sisters site at Glynneath, Mid Glamorgan.

Our Severn Sisters site covers some 2500 acres and incorporates all types of terrain, including water hazards and steep slopes.   It is also well equipped with all the required aspects of, for example, a Winching Programme, with the benefits of wrecked & burned out vehicles, timber and forestry.

2. Sennybridge Training Ground, Powys.

Our Sennybridge site lies in the heart of the Brecon Beacons and is located within one of the Military's largest and most challenging training grounds.  It encompasses some 10 miles of off-road tracks incorporating a multitude of different terrain types and obstacles.

3. Baskerville Hall, at Clyro Court, Clyro, Hereford.

Our off road supertrack is situated in the grounds of Baskerville Hall, a historic country mansion with a colourful past! Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was a frequent house visitor at the hall, and was so inspired by it that he asked permission to use it as the basis of a novel. Permission was given on the condition that the location of the Hall was never disclosed, therefore the famous novel "The Hounds of the Baskervilles" was based around Grimpen Mire.

The course covers a total of 7 miles and is set in 150 acres of woodland. It has natural steep ascents and descents - all terrain, through mud and water. It is acclaimed throughout the UK as one of the most stimulating and original courses currently open to the public.

Since 1987 Baskerville has become the venue for training both Mountain Rescue and the Fire Service, as well as hosting numerous Off-Road competitions such as Driving Force, Wye and Welsh, Baskerville Challenge and the Hill Rally. Motor companies such as Vauxhall and Ford use the course as a test ground, and it is also a registered ATB Training Ground.
