    Went here for my first outdoor karting experience and it was great! Managed to get a 50.275 so will definitely be coming back to try and beat that! Compared to other karting events I'd looked at, this was one of the best in terms of value for money. I tried out the 30 minutes practice session which was good to get an understanding of how the karts handle without having to worry about being in a race. Now that I have an idea though, I'll have to try out one of the open race sessions in the future. The staff as well were really helpful and friendly. Would recommend to anyone who wants an amazing karting experience!

    I had very high expectations for Buckmore Park, having read quite a bit about it and having heard very positive feedback from others. I was not disappointed when we finally booked a session here. The track is magnificent. Fast karts coupled with a very well designed, high speed track provide a serous adrenaline rush. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The marshals always get you on track very fast, without the long delays so prevelant at other circuits. Very consistent karts too, one of the marshals told me he personally ensures the performance of each of the karts rigorously. We live quite far away from this circuit but were so impressed by our first visit we've been back several times since. I would highly recommend this track to all karting enthusiasts.

    We had a great karting day here! One participant was hospitalised though with some minor issues, due to a heavy crash (and some over-enthousiastic participants) . After the crash, I was a bit less relaxed driving around at 40m/h πŸ˜€. Food isn’t good, but the karting was definitely memorable!

    So much fun! Buckmore park has a very professional set up, with a full safety briefing and timing system. It even has three sectors so you can see where you're quick. 12 of us hired the track for a birthday celebration, doing a 20 minute grand prix. This was all the time we needed because most people were complaining of sore arms by the end but almost everyone wanted to go again another day.

    Buckmore Park is a phenomenal track - the downhill section is incredibly fun, and each corner has its own particular challenge. As well as that, track marshals do a great job, and the food served in the paddock was brilliant! 10/10, can't wait to go again next season!

    Fantastic well run and well equipped kart circuit. I took my son here for Bambino Karting lessons. He thoroughly enjoyed every second. Every aspect of the training was excellent and the staff superb. If you want your child to have a safe structured and controlled introduction to karting then I cannot recommend their courses highly enough. I can't wait to come back and do some karting myself!

    Very good international kart circuit and well maintained karts. Good little cafe, serving decent food and drinks for spectators. Only reason for 4 stars is that perhaps the venue could benefit from an extra marshall or two around the bottom half of the track during race events for safety.

    Well organised and a great track, the boys loved it. They did the age 12 to 15 session for 30 minutes and had a great time despite the rain. There's a cafe with screens if you don't want to go outside and a covered balcony and benches outside with good views of the track.

    Cannot fault anything Buckmore Park do. Their organisation is exceptional, the whole experience runs like clockwork. The instructors and staff are all very knowledgeable about karting and extremley friendly. We cannot wait to return.

    Had a lovely day watching my friends' son race for the first time and they won!! So exciting. The cafe has lovely ladies behind the counter. I had a cheese straw which was perfectly flaky. The cheese flavour was just right. Great snack

    Excellent outdoor track, would highly recommend doing this if you are reasonably fit as it puts a lot of strain on your hands and wrists.

    We booked the session for my son’s birthday present. Everything was great from the staff, location, track through to the cafe πŸ˜‰. My son had the time of his life he came off the track absolutely buzzing. Will definitely be booking again. Can’t recommend enough. Also want to mention the lady on reception apologies I can’t remember your name. But just wanted to say you were so helpful and an absolute credit to Buckmore Park

    My step son had the best time, his first experience of driving and a real adrenaline rush for him! Enjoyed every minute of the trial. Will definitely return in the future!

    A great place to spend time with drive. But be careful. At one of the turns, a pit awaits you and it is frustrating. After a while, you will get used to it and will be able to drive around. And don't forget to dress warmly during these winter months. Super warm gloves and a balaclava will save you)))

    This time we actually had food too and i have to say it was great! Really good value and quality. My 12 year old loved the racing. The safety briefing was thorough. Management on track was on point. The coffee isn't bad. Could just do with a little more spacing between sessions.

    Track where Lewis Hamilton used to drive as well. A track with great heritage and set up. There are couple of nicely placed stands and also plenty of great spots to catch the race.

    My boys had a wonderful karting party at Buckmore park for their 13th birthday (twins). The team were super helpful arranging food for the boys, getting merchandise sorted out which I ordered for party bags and serving and supporting on the day for them and their friends . Having the track to themselves and friends was a thrill they loved while the parents connected over a coffee. The live results screen, viewing points and helpful marshalling for a few excited spins made it an all round fabulous karting experience. The track is awesome. The post party fizzy spray and medals were a wonderful surprise. My boys described it as a perfect day. Highly recommend it.

    Great track and staff. Very safe and the karts are easy to drive. Obey the rules and you will be fine. Worth the money. We had half hour on the circuit and that was plenty of time. I'm a middle aged big fella too and it was enjoyable and comfortable.

    Me and my brother both love visiting this track, sadly they can't make me faster than the blighter! But the track is awesome fun. The whole place has a nice laid back aura. The track is cleverly designed for good racing and the first corner sweep is good, fun. The following hairpins are ideal for over-taking. Want to go back soon!

    Great day for everyone involved, all the crew were great and Clinton especially dealing with all the testosterone and track limits for 1 team πŸ˜‚. I'll be back on 6th July
