This page helps you get to the three GWR main stations using public transport. As always, you are advised to check with the transport operator before planning your journey.

Cheltenham Race Course

The nearest mainline railway station to the GWR is Cheltenham Spa. Stagecoach service D operates every 10 minutes from Monday to Saturday from the forecourt of Cheltenham Spa railway station, running to Cheltenham Race Course Park & Ride.

The Park & Ride is about a half a mile walk to the GWR Race Course station. The walk is along the race course internal road, and is sign-posted. Our booking office is at road level, whilst the platforms and main station buildings are reached by a slope. Visitors who prefer not to walk are advised to either use a taxi or to use Winchcombe or Toddington station instead.

On Sundays and Bank Holidays, Stagecoach service D operates half-hourly from Cheltenham Spa railway Station to the top of Evesham Road on its way to Bishops Cleeve and beyond. Passengers are advised to ask the driver to set them down at the stop nearest to the entrance of the Race Course. They should check the location of the stop back into town, on the Evesham Road.

Passengers should get off at Harvest Home Public House in Greet or Becketts Lane stop, and walk back to Winchcombe Station, approximately 3 minutes away.
