About Rye House Kart Raceway

If your family loves speed, excitement, and a little friendly competition, then Rye House Kart Raceway is the perfect place for an unforgettable day out!

Things To Do At Rye House Go Karting

At Rye House Kart Raceway, you'll find mini or bambino karts suitable for ages 3 to 8 years, so your young petrolheads can be the star of the show! Plus, they'll be completely safe while they zoom! From 8 years old (plus 4ft 2 in shoes), drivers will use the Kadet Karts in groups!

You'll experience the ultimate modern warfare games in Laser Combat, but without the bruises or pain. Just fun! The indoor arena has sound, light and visual effects, turning computing into close-range combat. The game aims to score as many points as possible. How? By hitting the opposing team, aiming through your tactical red dot sight and gaining points by shooting their head sensors!

Race Like a Pro on a Legendary Track

Take on the same iconic outdoor track where Lewis Hamilton began his career! With thrilling bends and speedy straights, Rye House Kart Raceway lets kids and parents feel like real racing champions as they zip around and battle for first place in a safe, exciting environment.

Perfect for All Ages and Abilities

Whether your kids are junior racers (ages 8+) or teens looking for a high-speed challenge, there’s a kart to suit every driver. With full safety gear, expert briefings, and friendly staff on hand, families can enjoy the thrill of racing, no matter their experience level.

Brilliant for Birthday Parties and Special Days

Make celebrations unforgettable with Rye House Kart Raceway’s party packages! Kids can enjoy exclusive track time, fun group races, and a chance to stand on the winners’ podium.
