After a very challenging time, many of the events that form the British Summer Social Season look set to make a welcome return this year. Badminton Horse Trials is one of the earlier events that takes place in the calendar. The 5-star international equestrian event was founded in 1949 and it is held on The Duke of Beaufort’s estate in Gloucestershire.

The Sloaney’s coverage of Badminton Horse Trials always proves very popular as we approach this event with the sport in mind, but also the fabulous shopping, fashion and food and beverage offerings. Badminton Horse Trials 2022 will have something for everyone.

Located only a couple of hours outside of London, Badminton Horse Trials is a great escape from city life and it is a wonderful weekend away for everyone. Badminton is partnering with the historic De Vere Tortworth Court hotel, in Wotton-under-Edge this year. There are many beautiful places to stay nearby if you can’t find space here, with Whatley Manor and Bath’s five star hotels among the top picks.
