    I’ve long had a hankering to attend their summer festival, probably staying at least one night in or around the town. Do any forumites have experience, direct or otherwise, of the racing there?

    Likewise Oscar , id like to go Deauville . From what ive seen on you tube traditional old buildings , looks very smart .Be great to hear from people who have been.
    Ive never been racing in France , would love to get around a few one day .

    Clarefontaine racecourse is next door to Deauville .
    Bit like Doomben and Eagle Farm in Brisbane two big tracks one side of road to other .

    Funnily enough I was looking around the internet just last night trying to plan a ten day road trip round France for and part of the plan I came up with included a day at Deauville on Sunday the 2nd of August for Maurice de gheest day.

    There’s a town called Honfleur that sounds like it could be a good spot to stay for the night. A harbour town with cobbled streets and good food and wine!

    I’ve never been there, but judging from portraits of Honfleur harbour by Seurat it looks spectacularly beautiful!
