Polo Valley, Sotogrande

In true Powder Byrne style, you can trust that our exclusive Learn Together programme is designed with your entire family in mind. Providing you with a perfect balance of exciting new experiences like learning to ride, the first introduction to polo as a game, all the way through to playing stick and ball, and even your first family Chukkas with your own team pro!

With every aspect professionally catered to the individual family members, all learning, playing and then relaxing together in a unique environment that keeps you wanting to come back for more.

Immerse yourself in the charm of our authentic Spanish Finca,  situated in the serene heart of the ranch. This exclusive hideaway is perfect for a large family or two families travelling together, offering accommodation for up to eight guests in comfortable en-suite bedrooms. The Finca features a private pool and a stunning dining terrace, elegantly set within the gardens. Additionally, guests have the option to book the Finca guesthouse on a bed-and-breakfast basis.

We know that, just like skiing, almost everyone who tries polo falls in love with it. There is something appealing for everyone in the family, whether it be the riding, hitting the ball accurately, playing in a team, the speed and adrenaline, the competitiveness (which comes later), or the social scene around the game. It is a phenomenal sport for so many reasons that we know our clients will enjoy, especially our five-star surroundings.

Our Learn Together programme is always run by experienced and professional instructors in a safe and controlled environment. It is very hands-on to give you the best start to riding and to play polo on the first day. Our ponies are well-trained and hand-selected for the individual. We can supply all the kit, but in some cases, children may need to wear their own shoes due to size and comfort.
