Classic Car Museum

The Hill Country


It's more of a hotel garage than a museum, but this fine collection of classic cars is well worth a peek. Just buy a drink at the hotel and someone will open it up for you. Models, most from the 1960s, include several Rolls-Royces, Jaguars and an original Mini Cooper. One of the Rolls is said to have shepherded the Queen of England around the country on an official trip.
