I had an hour wait last time I was there and warned them that I'd start using the Marriott or Radisson Blu at Heathrow if this didn't improve... as ZeroNet expands and we get competition for EV driver visits this will improve.Great. Do they still manage to lose the key for 20 minutes each time?
It would be a great thing to do in the week following our Brighton EV Gathering in June when we expect lots of European owners... maybe we could have 20+ Roadster's undertaking the End to End drive one after another and award a cup to the best time.Yeah, it was more that I'd like to do it at some point, would be cool to hold the record for a period of time at least.
Many of you will remember that last year I borrowed a Roadster and drove it from London to Cornwall. I stopped overnight at my brother's place to recharge.
At the time I was driving to Cornwall a lot. While driving the second leg in the morning I thought "wouldn't it be great if there was an HPC somewhere so that in the future my colleagues and I could take a Model S and stop for dinner en route?" Then I thought, "hang on, my brother is on the board of the poshest hotel in town" and an idea was born.
A little bit of arm twisting later and The Castle Hotel now has the first public HPC in the UK :smile: Furthermore, I think this is the first public 70 Amp HPC in Europe :wink:

Now, it is possible to travel from London or the Midlands to anywhere in the South West (it's 143 miles from the London store, 140 from Birmingham).
Stop in at the Castle Hotel for a meal and then carry on down to The Scarlet for a perfect EV long weekend, or stay at the Castle and check out some of the fantastic drivers' roads around my home town. The sun is out, it's a lovely day.
Please call them on 01823 272 671 to check the charger is available to use. The address is:
The Castle Hotel,
Castle Green,
Taunton,
Somerset
TA1 1NF
Besides, here are some of the other clientele. We need an electric reply to this :biggrin:

I appreciate I’m a few years late to the party, would be great if they opened it to non residents even for a small charge.
