    Hi all,

    I have to head out to Limerick Racecourse but I'm not a confident motorway driver when on my own. And I have absolutely no sense of direction!!

    I'll be coming at it from the Dock Road direction.

    I've checked it out on google maps and it appears that I drive for about 4 miles or so beyond the turn-off for Van Veens, then reach a roundabout. Take the first left off the roundabout, under/over the motorway, then take the 3rd turn off (one of the three is the feeder from the motorway and can't be gone down) towards the Race Course, then its on my left after a mile or two.

    Is this correct?

    Thanks in advance.

    yes, that is correct.....once you get to the roundabout just prior to patrickswell village you will take the left there and the new road will be underneath you....carry on then entil you see the main entrance into the race coure...you cant miss it really, it will probably be the only entrance open anyway. take your time on that stretch of road as its quiet bendy. have a safe trip. hth

    Thank you both so much. I really appreciate your help.

    Hopefully there won't be reports of a bewildered woman driving around in circles near Patrickswell :D:D:D

    If there is'nt a race meeting or other event on at the racecourse the only entrance open will be the Horsebox entrance, once you cross over the motorway and through the roundabout turn left after about 100 metres, you will see lots of advertising hoardings, travel 100 metres to T junction turn right, and you will be facing the racecourse gates.
