lovely views
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.

What a great day
41st wedding anniversary celebration at Carlisle races. The food was gorgeous. The staff were polite and friendly and there was enough of them, as our waitress was only looking after 3 tables. So there was no problem with the service. View of the course and racing was superb from the restaurant and its balcony.

The staff could not have done any more to make our day a truly memorable one. A delightful lady came and charmingly enquired if everything was to our satisfaction, and we were sat at a very well presented table in an impressive room

Highly recommend
Had a truly great evening at Carlisle Racecourse and it was well worth the visit. Plenty of seating or places to watch the racing, nice food at various places and everyone was incredibly friendly with staff dotted all around smiling and saying hello. The whole place was immaculately tidy - not a bit of rubbish anywhere, flowers and grounds looked great and the ladies toilets were spotlessly clean at the end of the evening, clearly everyone takes huge pride in the entire course! Highly recommend

Excellent venue
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
