Not sure they would hire privately - but what about the Porsche Facility on the outside of Hanger Straight at Silverstone.
They have all sorts of interesting stuff - including a big "oversteer" circle. Also a nice little windy track around the outside which may be useful. |

Longcross is often used for filming and the like - if there's anything on 'the circle' it'll only be there for a limited period (there was a wooden colleseum type structure built on there at one point and a rally went on around it
 ).I guess Millbrook is too expensive as well? |
