What visitors say
Great place to go! The karting tracks were a lot bigger than I thought they would be! The only problem was it didn't seem very organised, when we got there the guy said that they had bookings online for either package of laps but didn't give extra time for the booking with the more laps, therefore there was a 30 minute wait for our group session time to start. There was a deal on for the laps, pizza and a bottle of pop, which was an absolute steal of a deal as you got a full pizza in a box, and you got a choice of 'branded' pop from the fridge, not the cheap stuff! Apart from the waiting time/organisation, a fab fun day was had 😁

Highly recommend — one of the best and friendliest tracks we’ve visited. For our children’s first visit and first go-karting experience, they were fantastic. The staff were incredibly helpful, patient, and understanding. My son found being in a larger group a bit overwhelming, so they kindly split the group to give him a better experience, which made a huge difference. We’ll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend it to any families or groups looking for a fun, welcoming, and well-run experience.

Excellent experience here, went with my partner and the staff were really good and friendly, track was spot on and easy to get to from the A1. We actually travelled up from near Grimsby on our way to Consett with the bikes and both really enjoyed it :-)

Me and my 9 year old son came here during half term, they had a deal where you got a meal included. It was fantastic! We werent waiting long before being fitted and had to watch a short safety video and then we was off! The staff where more than helpful, especially if we had crashed into the wall etc. Very good for beginners and the pizza was lovely too. We loved it so much, wecame again the following day. We was lucky both times, as we where the only racers on the track. We will be visiting again very soon :D
