I would like to welcome you to the Beaulieu Estate –home of Lord Montagu and his family and one of most fascinating  museums in Britain, The National Motor Museum. The museum was created by present Lovrd Montagu as a tribute to his father, one of Britain’s motoring pioneers who won the first ever medal in 1899 to be awarded to a British racing driver, in a British-built car, on the Continent.
With a collection of more than 300 vehicles, from the earliest days of motoring in the 1890s to Formula 1 racing cars, its an experience not to be missed.The James Bond Experience features a legendary collection of cars and boats from the James Bond movies including the Lotus Submarine Car.Among the owners of Beaulieu Estate throughout the history was 3d Earl of Southampton,who was a patron of William Shakespeare. With its 7,000 acres of land Beaulieu Estate became a favorite place for royalty to visit, James I and Charles I came often to hunt.
