MD Newton Abbot Racecourse

Leaving this old market town on the Teignmouth road, the racecource is on the right hand side. Horse racing has been a part of Newton Abbot for many years, and the meetings here are run under National Hunt rules, and are held most of the year, with a short break in the summer. The tradition of horse racing here, is enjoyed by locals and visitors alike.

When racing is not held, the racecourse is the venue of one of the largest Mind Body and Spirit Fayres in the county, QUEST. In addition Crystal Fayres are periodically held on the site.

A day at the races, or to attend one of the Fayres, makes Newton Abbot Racecourse, is an excellent venue.
