Getting to The Derby at Epsom
- Venue: Epsom Downs Racecourse, Surrey
- When: Usually early June — check the official dates before booking
- Drive from Poole: about 2 hours, before event-day traffic
On the day
Roads across the Downs close or run slowly on Derby Day, so we follow the course's travel arrangements and allow extra time. The car waits nearby or returns for a set collection time.
Who books it
Groups of racegoers and hospitality guests. Alongside our own cars we work with partner operators and a network of licensed drivers, so several vehicles for one group is straightforward.
