THIRSK RACECOURSE - THIRSK [119]
















Thursday 21st May – Monday 25th May 2009

This all grass site is situated within walking distance of Thirsk town centre on the outer perimeter of the towns’ racecourse. Small and compact with pitches arranged in lines away from the reception area. A small supermarket was under construction on one side of this site and this was noisy during working hours. The local fire and ambulance stations are also adjacent which could add to noise pollution. In spite of all this there is a peaceful feeling to this site. The site is used as a car park during race meetings and arrangements are made for caravanners to use an alternative area with no electric hook-up during these times.

There is a large supermarket across the road from the entrance and all the usual facilities are available in the town centre which is within walking distance. Car parking in the centre of town can be limited during busy periods, especially market days. Buses run to all the major local towns from Thirsk and there is a rail station on the east coast main line on the outskirts of town.
