Thrilling horseracing on the Barbury downland

Barbury Castle has hosted racing for over 100 years, since Aubrey Hastings and Ivor Anthony dominated the Flat and Jumps calendars in the early years of the twentieth century. Now you can enjoy highly competitive steeplechasing in the natural amphitheatre of Barbury Racecourse each winter across four fixtures from December – April. This is the home of racing in Wiltshire, an estate which also hosts top trainer Alan King, with Emma Lavelle, Brian Meehan and George Baker a stone’s throw away. But each day is not just about the racing; there’s shops, a bar, bookmakers and fun for all the family in the bracing fresh air of Barbury.

Enjoying a day out in Salisbury

If it’s shopping, eating, watching a film, going to the theatre, going to the races, visiting a cathedral or a National Trust property you’re after (not necessarily on the same day!), then Salisbury is for you. This beautiful market town has everything. Just wandering around the streets with its gorgeous timbered buildings is lovely in itself!

Meet stars of the sport at Barbury

Barbury Races is less than 30mns from Lambourn, so-called Valley of the Racehorse, which means you can be sure of bumping into one of your Jump racing heroes when you come to Barbury Races. Alan King, Nicky Henderson, Charlie Mann, Warren Greatrex – they all pass through to check out the latest emerging riding talent on display in Barbury’s highly competitive races.

Walking on the Ridgeway

There are plenty of amazing walks taking in the Ridgeway, said to be Europe’s oldest road. The views are incredible over largely unspoilt countryside.
