Stonehurst Motor Museum sits within Stonehurst Family Farm in Mountsorrel, Charnwood, showing a collection of veteran, vintage and classic cars, motorcycles and motoring memorabilia built up by the Duffin family over fifty years. Highlights include Leicestershire's first motorised bus, a 1930s period garage, motorbikes ranging from a 1911 TT Ariel to a classic Vincent, and cars from an unrestored 1911 Wolseley to 1960s sports cars. Many exhibits still run and attend vintage motoring events. It suits motoring enthusiasts and families already visiting the farm, with viewing open daily and free entry included with farm admission. There's a car park off Bond Lane, and the site is largely wheelchair and pushchair accessible. Barrow Upon Soar station is 1.2 miles away, and there are 13 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays.
