About Tweseldown Racecourse

Tweseldown Racecourse is steeped in over 160 years of equestrian and military heritage, having hosted events ranging from cavalry training and National Hunt meetings to international competitions and Olympic‑level disciplines. Today, they continue as one of the UK’s premier eventing and cross‑country schooling venues, welcoming riders from grassroots levels right through to the international stage. At the same time, Tweseldown is committed to preserving its extraordinary heathland environment: it lies within a legally protected Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and the Thames Basin Heaths Special Protection Area, supporting rare heathland flora and fauna including the woodlark, nightjar and dartford warbler.

The venue’s dual identity – as a high‑quality sporting facility and a conservation‑minded natural space – gives it a unique character. Whether hosting competitions, clinics, or schooling sessions, Tweseldown combines top‑level equestrian opportunity with a sense of heritage, place and environmental stewardship. By bringing together community use, elite training and ecological sensitivity, the venue offers an inspiring setting for riders, families, and nature lovers alike.
