Racing at Cartmel dates back to 1856. But it's almost certain that racing has taken place here since at least the middle of the fifteenth century when monks of the nearby priory entertained themselves by organising racing on mules. The Course Enclosure is situated on the opposite side of the finishing straight from the Paddock the main features of this Enclosure are the fairground, trade stands and market stalls. Tickets are for the Paddock Enclosure, which contains the Grandstand and Paddock, Parade Ring/Winners Enclosure, Marquee Village and new Cartmel Restaurant. Holders of a Paddock Enclosure Ticket can move freely over to the Course Enclosure at the track crossing point
Sunday: After a mid morning departure, we travel to Grange over Sands and onto the hotel checking in approx 4 pm, with some time to settle in before dinner. Monday: We start the day with a hearty breakfast in the hotel. We then travel to Cartmel for the days racing. Returning home after the last Race.
