I went to Doncaster races as friends had booked their wedding reception in one of the suites there

I went to Doncaster races as friends had booked their wedding reception in one of the suites there. I'd definitely recommend it as wedding venue although we had to vacate the room at midnight which seemed a little harsh but I understand security issues. There are staff on all levels if you would like to place bets when races are on, which is handy as we were on the top floor. The room had its own bar and staff were lovely. There was a hot buffet and the quality was great although not a big selection of food- that could have been choice of the wedding couple. Facilities are clean and there seems to be plenty. Fantastic day.
