Open to all members, day camp offers a wide variety of activities for all attendees. Running over three days, days one and two will be hosted (as normal) in the Pony Club fields in Burghley Park. Here, the ridden sessions will include dressage, show jumping, grids, working hunter, cross country and games, with further unmounted horse and pony care and fun sessions featuring in the itinerary. As always, the opportunity for those in the E-D proficiency test range will have the opportunity to complete these important milestones. Day Camp comes with a twist this year. With a squeeze between term dates and park availability, day three of Day Camp 2025 will be going ‘on tour’ to Grange Farm at Wittering. This gives us the opportunity to offer a slightly revised offering on day three, including the popular water play in the numerous ponds and streams. This third day will run as a slightly shorter day than the previous two and will welcome parents throughout the day for a Parents’ Picnic, followed by presentations in the afternoon. Ponies and riders will attend on a daily basis. No overnight stabling or camping.
Day camp: £210
Open to members at D+ level and above, the residential camp will be hosted in Burghley Park for the duration. With four full days of riding and activities, Resi Camp offers an intensive riding experience across dressage, show jumping, grids, cross country, games, horse and pony care, and a range of fun evening and other complimentary educational activities. Camp setup will commence during the afternoon of Sunday 27th July, with riding activities running from Monday – Thursday. Campers will need to provide their own camping equipment and ponies/horses will stay for the duration. Toilets, showers and food provided. All attendees must be capable of looking after their own pony (under supervision), including tacking up and mucking out. Minimum age as at start of camp: 10 years. Resi Camp will conclude on Thursday afternoon with a finale event and presentation to which parents are invited.

For those who don’t wish to camp and stay in the park, we offer a Day Resi option. Riders will participate in the full daytime itinerary and be provided with lunch and daytime refreshments. Day Resi campers will also be invited to join one ‘evening of entertainment’ during the camp week.
