Friendly crowd, all the facilities you need really including food stalls and a good few bars. Seats can be purchased for extra, worth it if you don't want to be stood all day.

Staff and facilities inside racecourse are great. It lost 2 stars as we went on a coach and from where the coach had to park to the actual racecourse is NOT suitable for anyone with mobility issues !!! It was quite a steep hill with grass & loose stones on it. Other than that it's a great day out !

Probably my favourite racecourse and was there for the Ulster National recently. It is a very unique track with its undulations and makes it a fantastic viewing course with that famous uphill finish. Great facilities, a real family friendly atmosphere and staff are excellent. A course that has been transformed over the last 10-15 years, so credit to all at Downpatrick Racecourse.
