Our Guest Thoughts
Thank you for providing a fabulous venue for our Away Day. We have collated really good feedback about the atmosphere, the view, the room and of course the refreshments and lunch. I was really pleased with the attention to detail, and the help and support you provided at the start and during the day. We will, and have recommended the venue – and certainly for our team if we need to have such an event again we wouldn’t hesitate to use you.

I recently held an event at the Racecourse and organised it with Sarah. Nothing was too much trouble. The event itself went very well and we will definitely use Wetherby Racecourse for another event in 2023 – James Whitford, Business Development Manager

Fantastic service. Very attentive to detail, polite, flexible, most welcoming and very customer focused. Food was fantastic and the venue and absolute winner!

Sarah and the team were fantastic.
It’s not easy to cook for over 300 people, our meal was superb and every table was looked after brilliantly.
As with other events the entire team at Wetherby Racecourse were excellent, looking forward to the next event!! December 2019

Hannah Ashton – Cotswold Horse & Hound Physiotherapy Seminar
Nothing was too much trouble despite IUS last minute changes! They were willing to change and amend requirements at very short notice (additional room and equipment) and the team were a pleasure as always. July 2019
Richard Light – Integrated Utility Services Conference
The Bramham Hall worked really well for our 300 delegates and using the ceiling television screens to project our presentation throughout the room helped no end.
The serving of refreshments and food worked really well. I timed and it took 300 people 11 minutes to all have a drink which enabled us to stay on schedule throughout the day. Lunch worked really well and everyone got through the buffet quick and efficiently.
Sinead Gracey – Argos

I would not hesitate in recommending Wetherby racecourse for conference facilities. The staff and standard of venue were excellent.
Bev Green, Group Sales Manager
I have nothing but good things to say about Wetherby racecourse as an event venue, and particularly about all its staff.
