Our Badminton 2023 Experience 

Our Eventing Breaks experiences kicked off with Badminton this year, and the week didn't disappoint! 

We were treated to a course walk and preview drinks with Fox-Pitt Eventing on the Saturday evening which was a brilliant insight into the course and the rider's views on the changing format of course design! A huge congratulations to William and Grafennacht who finished 14th!

The mud and rain didn't dampen spirits over the Coronation Weekend, and we are already looking forward to 2024!
