Excellent tour with Malcolm, who was friendly, funny and down to earth. You don't need to have any interest in racing, just a like of horses to enjoy this spectacular place. It was great to get up close and personal with some of the mares and foals. (visit in (Jan)/Feb/March/(April) to see mares and foals) Really good value for money. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x47d86853e7a75569:0x7bde74c33e179959!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** The National Stud, Newmarket, CB8 0XE [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=52.2272790%2C0.3644425) **Category** Sightseeing & Attractions **Guest rating** 4.6 / 5 (71 reviews) **Suitable for** All Ages **Setting** Outdoor **Toilets on site** Yes **Destination** Newmarket [More attractions in Newmarket](https://staycation.co.uk/newmarket/attractions) ★ 4.6 (71 reviews) [Visit official website](https://discovernewmarket.co.uk/places/national-stud-tour/?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=attraction) [0344 748 9200](tel:03447489200) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Newmarket **Postcode** CB8 0XE **Payment** Cards, Contactless **Plus Code** 9F4269G7+WQ [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x47d86853e7a75569:0x7bde74c33e179959!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x47d86853e7a75569:0x7bde74c33e179959!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x47d86853e7a75569:0x7bde74c33e179959!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Newmarket Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
