How the day runs
To Cheltenham Racecourse for the Cheltenham Festival, the car takes the A419 and M5. Drop-off follows the organisers' rules: drivers follow festival signage to a dedicated Pick up & Drop off car park and are asked not to use local roads or driveways. Hackney carriages use a signed point on the racecourse main drive; private hire follows pick-up/drop-off signs. The car stays on hand all day rather than leaving and returning. Home again in about 44 minutes, give or take the exit queue. On ordinary race days, Bath Racecourse takes 54 min and Worcester Racecourse is 44.2 miles. The events are independent of Ravensley: book your tickets with them, and the car with us.
