I could be wrong, but I think the reserve is about a gallon or a little bit more. I don't let my cars go below quarter tank just in case, and also this helps to stop the pump from sucking up any crap that collects in the bottom of the tank over time.

Derbyshire isn't the outback wilderness you seem to fear.

Not sure about your individual car but the 100 ltr tank on my sprinter has accepted 103-104 ltrs on many occasions and I shouldn't tempt fate but I have yet to run out accidentaly in over half a million miles of motoring. This also prevents crap collecting in the bottom of the tank as it is caught by the fuel filter and then removed at the appropriate filter services.

Just fill up as you get close and you should be fine for days. You are staying in an area that is not much more than about 30 miles across.
