The Beverley Polo Club has officially entered the UK commercial and equestrian property market. Although certain infrastructure requires updating, the asset features operational facilities and active planning permissions. This latter factor provides a strategic advantage for investors seeking to bypass the extensive regulatory delays typically associated with permit processing in the European market. Spanning a total area of nearly 80 acres of grassland, the property offers a dual-focus acquisition opportunity, enabling continuity within professional sports while facilitating commercial expansion into the leisure and equestrian tourism sectors. Established in 2002 by Andrew Foreman to develop and promote polo within the region, the complex maintains its historic operational status. Logistically, the asset is situated in a semi-rural environment adjacent to the town of Beverley, which supplies commercial services, sporting facilities, and urban infrastructure. The estate benefits from direct transport links, optimising horse transport logistics and ensuring seamless access for heavy goods and high-tonnage vehicles. The technical infrastructure is designed for competition, training, and livestock management. The operational core comprises a regulation-size polo pitch and an adjacent viewing pavilion requiring refurbishment. The land is partitioned into a network of paddocks, primarily enclosed by post-and-rail timber fencing, and integrates automated water troughs connected directly to the mains water supply. An established cross-country circuit complements the outdoor training areas. The accommodation component includes legacy player cabins and two prefabricated units situated alongside the arena, presenting varying states of repair. The estate’s development potential is underpinned by the transfer of an approved planning licence, which authorises the construction of six timber cabins designated exclusively for holiday and tourism use.
