Unique Locations

When this box was first designed in the 19th century it was to have the 'judge's eye' view of the finish and that remains a key benefit of this unique location. A true one-off, this box offers the crescendo of excitement as runners flash past its open balcony.

This suite of rooms is the ideal home for that extra special raceday.

Used by the York Race Committee on the Festival days, it comes with one of the best views in racing, directly opposite the finish (the judge sits next door!). It offers a spacious lounge complete with viewing balcony and a separate dining room with stunning views of Terry's clocktower and the Edwardian Weighing Room.

Add in the convenience of private cloakrooms, plasma screen TVs and proximity to tote betting, you can see why this facility will satisfy the needs of the most discerning racegoer.

‘Service today was exemplary, third year doing this and the staff working on the bar and general service were incredibly helpful and their attitudes were fantastic. Great day, well done York .’ 

‘Excellent service - Rebecca was very attentive to the clients. It is very reassuring to have same staff as last June. Thanks again.’ 

'Impeccable atmosphere as ever engendered by very professional and attentive staff - nothing too much trouble - service levels acknowledged by all our guests - thank you!!''
