My team had a good evening and enjoyed some chatting and networking and to win, well, we couldn't believe it! We kept hoping we would be in the top 6 or so and when the results kept being read out we kept saying "could be top 5" "could be top 4" until finally the tie breaker!
The set up worked well and the food - top class as always". - Chartered Institute of Buildings

"Excellent training facility - professional feel to the whole day. 12 individual workspaces, with very new computers. The perfect set up for training we wanted to provide. Excellent location with plenty of parking. The staff I dealt with were all very helpful and quick to sort any IT issues - I was very impressed with the speed at which they could sort the projector issue. I very much appreciated access to the room the day before to set up as well.
The biscuits with the teas & coffees were a big hit.
Also, one of the vegetarians commented how nice the vege sandwich selection was!"
- BNI East of Anglia and Suffolk Sales Workshop - 12th March 2012
"I have been using the British Racing School as a metting venue 1 - 3 times a month every month for at least 4 years now. We've had as many as 140 delegates at events and as few as 3. As I write we will be attending this fantastic venue 3 times this month. Lissie is the most delightful young woman for whom nothing is too much trouble. Having used the venue so many times I have met most of the team and everyone, bar none, is friendly , cheerful and always happy to help with a smile on their face. I've never had any issue arise. It's a lovely setting and seems a great place to work such is the clear team spirit. I'd recommend Lissie and the BRS as a great meeting venue."

- Newmarket and District Chamber of Commerce - 20th January 2012
"Many, many thanks for dealing with our muddles this morning! There are many venues I have been to in the past who would a) not have been so helpful and b) be so reactive.
Please also pass our thanks to your two ladies who helped mop up spills, found chairs, delivered water and provided more refreshments with such good grace.
I have already had three emails from delegates saying how much they enjoyed the morning, so even though we had a technical pickle we seem to have meet everyone's requirements"
- Whorl Publishing Foal Care Course - 16th - 18th January 2012

All the questionnaires returned were very compliment with a number remarking that there were 'too many good cakes'! Thanks also for letting us use the Gordon Richards Room as it gave those who wanted a bit more quiet and space a place to go in the coffee breaks.
Look forward to seeing you again at the beginning of March"

- BMS Conference - 03rd November 2011
"Thank you so much for arranging such a good day for us - both in the run up and on Thursday itself. I have to say everything about the meeting was really excellent. The lecture theatre and the exhibition and registration areas worked really well for us. A number of the sponsors and delegates asked when we were having another meeting at the British Racing School as it was such a good venue. We tend to hold meetings every two years, so sadly it won't be until 2013
The lunch was really good - and all your staff could not have been more helpful, friendly or quick to respond.
Thank you Jo for looking after us beautifully on the day - and Lissie for your hard work in getting every detail right."
- British
"Just wanted to thank you so much for all your assistance and support with our meeting yesterday.
You couldn't have been more helpful - either in the lead up to the event or on the day. Nothing was too much trouble - and the support we received was exceptional.
This certainly made our lives very much easier and helped everything to run like clockwork.
The theatre and others rooms were just perfect for our requirements and we had some very good feedback on both the location, the setting, the facilities and the catering.
The food was excellent."

- Birketts LLP Team Away Day 15th October 2011
"Birketts' Partners held an Away Day for 45 people at the British School of Racing. The quality of the accommodation was first class and suited our purposes very well indeed from the main lecture theatre through to breakout rooms. The attention received from all staff was friendly, flexible and very well regarded by all present. The restaurant lunch was served efficiently to time and was delicious.
