We had a great day out at uttoxeter races on new year's Eve, despite the stress of getting there! The whole town was grid locked with traffic trying to get to the races, coaches were pulling over on the dual carriageway to let their passengers walk the final mile in their fine clothes and high heels. The signs for race parking took you down a narrow cobbled Street with no car park at the end. And the huge field that some people found was not signed at all from the main roads in. Despite having planned to arrive an hour early, we missed the first race and very nearly the second. It was shambolic. This approach continued on site as the chip stall ran out of chips!
The thing was good, facilities OK and atmosphere was amazing. But I would think twice before going again.
