Turweston Aerodrome is private land. Learner drivers are only allowed in with a permit from Driving Ambition
Private practice permits are limited to learner drivers who are already 17+ and need somewhere safe to start practicing either with a provisional or full licence. Under 17 off-road drivers are now only permitted with Driving Ambition on a lesson.
PLEASE NOTE - The area is a mixture of tarmac and concrete roads. Half of the area is suitable for low speed stop/start control for beginners due to potholes. If you are looking for higher speed driving it is not suitable.
Permits are back - cost £35.00 available anytime after 9am. You can stay as long as you wish from 9am to 5pm. The site closes for learner drivers at 5pm.
You are welcome to use the cafe and toilets in the control tower. Please use the link below to choose a date and pay online. Permits will be sent to you by email.
L plates MUST be displayed if the driver is provisional licence holder and the driver must be insured. This may seem obvious but you MUST remain in the car with your learner. Please do not stand outside the car and watch them drive!
We can provide a longer permit for a week or a month on request if we have space.

The cafe & toilets in the control tower are open to the public, but at no point is it safe to either access the apron, (the area where planes come into park), or to walk across the runway.
The runway is clearly sectioned off and clearly marked, and at no time is it safe to use it as a shortcut.
Please take great care whilst on site, and if you are unsure where to go we will always be happy to help advise you.
The safety of everyone on site is of utmost importance to the whole team.
Thank you.
