Reviews
Brilliant day out, went Karting really professional marshals Ollie and Bodhi, and finished off with a lovely lunch from the cafe served up by Rob in the Kitchen.
Rebecca Robbins
One of the best outdoor karting circuits in the area. Staff are friendly and helpful and there are Marshall’s around the track to ensure participant safety. Equipment such as overalls and helmets are provided in the cost of the activity but balaclavas and gloves must be purchased separately for a small fee. Thus circuit is available in multiple configurations depending on the event you are taking part in. Lots of events need to be booked in advance but they do offer arrive and drive sessions. We took part in a Grand Prix event which needs a minimum of 8 people and ours was 4 practice laps, 4 qualifying laps and a 45 lap race with trophies awarded for 1st 2nd and 3rd place. They also provided lap reports for each individual detailing laps completed, fastest lap and each lap time as well as a race overview showing position changes throughout the race. By no means a cheap activity but plenty of smiles to the pound and great fun.

Fantastic circuit with really good quality karts, the facilities are all great and you are well looked after from arrival to the end of your session.
The track appears to have been fully resurfaced so it’s a smooth and fast surface with some challenging corners and hairpins which you can average around 30 mph on a good lap.
Good friendly staff make it great fun
Martin Pocock
Ai 500 event, so far so good. Place is well maintained and has lots going on. The karting looks really good with the biggest kart track I’ve seen. Tune in tomorrow to see the result of another days relentless warfare….
