If it’s horseracing you’re into, then where better to
start than the ‘home of horseracing’ – Newmarket?
Whether it’s spending a day at the races or visiting
The National Stud for a tour and some lunch, there
is loads available with Discover Newmarket. Groups
can book to have a look around Palace House or opt
for a driving tour; you can also enjoy behind-the-
scenes experiences for those wanting to take a peek
inside some of Newmarket’s racing yards.

And we can’t feature horseracing without
mentioning the iconic Ascot Racecourse. This year’s
main fixture, Royal Ascot, is taking place between
18th - 22nd June, and it’s one to add to your list for
next year with group tickets available.

Cheltenham Racecourse has something for
everyone, from thrilling racing action to fun
entertainment for all ages. Experience jump racing
and the roar of the crowds at the Cheltenham
Festival taking place in March 2020.

This feature looks at some of the UK’s best racing hotspots.
Whether it be cars, horses or greyhounds, there are plenty of
options for you and your group.
