It was great experience and when you are horse lover, you will be amazed to see the place and history of horce racing. They have shown all breed history as well which is a great info. There is a comparison between human heart, brain with horse as well. Horse heart weigh is 5 kg while our heart is way smaller. But we have a bigger brain than horse. Almost double size. Kids can ride horse smiluator to feel like jocky. Must visit if in town.

Wow! This place stunned this equine Novice. I knew nothing about horses, let alone racing horses before going. I think I now have a beginners bit. The displays were informative and interactive for Littles. We did a tour, which was fabulous as we got to talk to trainers and see horses being trained. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgeable and answered all this newbies questions. Ran out of time to see the art across the street and will be back. Thank you ladies!

This was our second visit with a group of high school students.We were warmly greeted and swiftly directed to our allocated parking area.Staff were friendly and extremely knowledgeable but the star of the show once again was Frank. We certainly kept him busy on the racing simulator, thanks to all for a lovely visit.

One of the best days out ever! Blue light cards are free! This is certainly a hidden gem, the staff are all fantastic. Their knowledge and attention to detail is very impressive. Very interesting museum, so much to see. The horses were the icing on the cake :). The tack shop cafe was a wonderful surprise, food is top quality. We are all planning to come again soon! X

Absolutely loved our trip. Such good value for money. My kids loved it. Never spent so long in a museum. The interactive side was amazing. They loved the simulator and the saddle display meeting the racehorses. Special mention to the man operating the simulator, he was really patient and kind with my daughter who is super anxious and shy. She went on it twice as she felt so relaxed. Definitely going back. All the staff were welcoming too.

Really interesting exhibits for the racing enthusiast or indeed general interest. Live talks on retraining of racehorses - lots to keep youngsters entertained. Great gallery of paintings - really good value. Bookshop and restaurant too.

If your a Horse lover this is the place for you. Lots of art and even a robotic horse to ride on, if your brave. In the afternoon you can see how they re train race horses for a new life away from racing.Very interesting place, give yourself three hours atleast.There is also a bar/restaurant at silly prices.

Loads to see and do. Guided tour twice a day to look at the resident horses and hear all about them. Cafe and bakery on site.Admission included a free return valid for a year!Will definitely be back as we didn't get round everything as we were going racing in the afternoon.
