Good place for a conference/training events. Plenty of space, plenty of break out spaces. Very clean and well maintained and the catering is excellent. Lovely views over the racecourse which makes it a pleasant place to have to work.

I would strongly recommend this venue

Amazing experience. Lovely racecourse and amazing area inside and out. Brilliant dining experience too. The food was served to a high standard and presented beautifully. The staff were remarkable and more than helpful. I would strongly recommend that you visit this venue for a great experience wether its for racing or an alternative event...

staff could not do enough to make our day special.

There must have been about 300 people in the room which was set out beautifully. We had a three course meal at lunch time and a light tea later. The food was excellent and the waiter's could not do enough to make our day as enjoyable as possible

Excellent venue with good facilities everything you need and parking is just outside the entrance in the south car park and so is the disabled parking

Beautiful scenery on the way from Yorkshire. Very good day out, looking forward to returning one day.

Excellent course with a nice cafe, food and drink area as well as a nice array of stalls and a great viewing area of the course. The paddock area is in close approximation to all of these areas which means everything is easy to get to. Also, the restaurant area is excellent with a nice overview of the race course. And the food in the restaurant is excellent, too!

We have just arrived back from the Carlisle Bell and Cumberland plate day..... we had managed to get tickets for the VIP restaurant hospitality....... Arrived to a champagne drink, 4 course meal and private table.... what can I say but.....amazing!!!!! The food was superb!..... the staff were very friendly and attentive. Fabulous day well worth it!!!
