We have stayed at Thirsk Racecourse many times before. during this stay it was a race weekend and it rained! The new wardens had their work cut out for them but they managed perfectly. the pitches are on grass, so for motor homes this can be difficult. There is some road noise as behind the site is a long road which attracts speeding cars, but having being in the centre of town makes up for that. There is 3 lovely butchers shops selling the best in local meats, as well as pubs selling meals, restaurants and other local shops. we always enjoy the weekend and not forgetting the social club for a pint or two! I have heard some people complain about the showers being small, but remember they are clean and lashings of hot water.
