What visitors say
I can only speak on what I observed from the Karting side. I’ve done Karting from a very young age, all over the UK and even club circuits in Europe and Asia. I attended but did not participate in a stag event. The karts all seem to be well maintained, the circuit is short but twisty (it’s a 30 second lap, for any competent driver). Requires genuine driving skill to safely overtake though, as noted by my friend half way up a barrier. Prices seem ok, location easy to get to, lots of facilities on site etc. One staff member in particular who was looking after the karts and testing them in between sessions has absolute skill - and should be racing 100%. One of the fastest I’ve seen for a while.

One of the best kart tracks I’ve been on and the karts are very quick, not like other places where they slow them down. Track was smooth and didn’t leave you bouncing all over the places. Reasonably priced and great staff, Well worth a visit.

Fantastic, staff exceptional and a really enjoyable karting session. First time in many years to Eddie Irvine Sports and not disappointed, good briefing and karts in good shape. Female receptionist fantastic, really willing to talk me through the trophies on display from EI's career. Updated after a second visit, magnificent. Again, female staff member (Sarah) could not have done more or been more pleasant. Karting was superb, albeit I pushed myself to physical limit and was barely able to get out of the kart.... A reflection of my unfit state. Absolutely magnificent, thank you. Added May 2025 - tried the VR F1 racing. My god it's so realistic it's scary. Recommend anyone to give it a go and as difficult as it may seem after 20 minutes you'll have found your feet and loving it. Superb morning once again. Thanks

Took my children to the indoor skate park, they enjoyed it, and the staff seemed very knowledgeable. It was £10 per child per session. They also hire out bikes, scooters and helmets. They offer a variety of other activites all located in the same warehouse. The toilet facilities were awful, they were dirty, there was no toilet roll and you had to dry your hands on a towel-not very hygienic.
