Work & Play

Goodwood can offer high performance sport at its most dramatic, exciting and thrilling.

With its historic Motor Circuit and former Battle of Britain airfield, and its proximity to the Solent, Goodwood is the ultimate playground for cars, boats and planes. The Motor Circuit is a magnetic attraction: the only classic circuit in the world unspoilt by modernisation; and an opportunity for you and your guests to revel in the romance of motor racing as it used to be. You, too, can drive in the wheel tracks of motor racing's greatest heroes.

For an exhilarating, high speed adventure, nothing can rival offshore power boating in the Solent. You and your guests can enjoy the thrill of a lifetime as you take to the water in an incredible V-24 and power over one of Britain’s most evocative and challenging stretches of water. You can even combine a morning of high performance cars with an afternoon powerboating. As you and your guests step off the track, we can transport you by helicopter to our fleet of powerboats waiting for you on the coast. With the powerboats skimming the waves beneath them, your guests can feel the spine-tingling rush of sport on the edge against the dramatic backdrop of the Isle of Wight’s breathtaking coastline.

Goodwood's very own historic Aerodrome is the perfect place to embark on aerial adventures in historic aircraft. Your guests can fly a Harvard from this historic wartime airfield, learning combat skills in a ferociously powerful plane. Alternatively, the golden age of travel is yours to rediscover as you fly to Europe in a vintage aircraft. A champagne lunch in Reims or a day’s racing in Deauville is just a short flight away.

Each activity is characterised by expert tuition, and welcoming, attentive staff, with a passionate attention to detail, committed to providing a truly unforgettable experience for you and your guests. Whatever you would like to do, we can arrange it for you.
