Dart Polo is an equestrian complex in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, dedicated entirely to the sport of polo. Run as a polo-focused operation rather than a multi-discipline centre, it caters to riders who want to learn, play or keep their polo ponies in one place. Group polo lessons start from GBP 55 per hour, with the Academy providing structured coaching for newcomers through to more experienced players.
The venue suits a range of riders. Beginners are welcomed, and members of the public can take group or individual coaching before deciding whether to join the polo club. Established players have access to club membership, chukka hire and tournament hire, which allows teams to book fixtures and practice matches on site. Livery clients are also catered for, with stabling, turnout paddocks and a working environment tied to an active polo yard rather than a general riding school.
Facilities centre on the sport itself. A grass polo ground is the main playing surface, supported by an outdoor arena for training and schooling, stables for working and visiting horses, and turnout paddocks for daily grazing. As a stud and breeding operation sits alongside the riding and livery services, the site is set up around the polo pony from start to finish, and visitors can expect a yard built around match play and ponies rather than hacking or show disciplines.
Dart Polo is located in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, in the East Midlands, with a DN21 postcode. It is open Tuesday to Friday from 10am, closing between 6pm and 7pm depending on the day, and at the weekend it runs from 10am to 5pm on Saturday and Sunday. The Monday is a closed day. Anyone interested in lessons, livery, the stud or club membership is encouraged to get in touch with the yard directly for current availability and pricing.
