Description
Equestrian Centre
Welcome to the Bishop Burton College Equestrian Centre.
We are situated at the heart of Bishop Burton College on a 362 hectares working farm. The facilities have been developed to meet the needs of our full and part-time students, and form part of the Bishop Burton College Centre of Vocational Excellence in Equine.
Bishop Burton College Equestrian Centre is a BHS Approved Riding School and Examination Centre. We are also a BHS 'Where to Train' centre up to BHSI level. The centre is open to the public for riding lessons so please check the lessons page for details. We can also offer intensive tuition towards BHS exams, tailor made for you.
The Bishop Burton Arena designed to hold equestrian competitions and events as well as lectures and practical demonstrations is the College's largest single building and is central to the redeveloped equine unit.
We are proud to have been approved as an Equestrian training base for the London 2012 Olympic Games.
Our facilities will now feature in the London 2012 Pre-Games Training Camp Guide (the Guide), which will be used by National Olympic Committees (NOCs) when selecting their training bases for use in the run up to, and during the games.
We look forward to welcoming you
Kim Knightley
Director, Bishop Burton College Equestrian Centre
