THE VENUE<br />

Hylands Park covers an impressive 574 acres <strong>of</strong> <strong>Essex</strong> countryside and is home<br />

to Hylands House, a stunning Grade II listed villa. Like many stately homes,<br />

Hylands House stood empty for a number <strong>of</strong> years and slowly slipped in to a<br />

state <strong>of</strong> disrepair until the current owners restored it to its former glory.<br />

The restoration <strong>of</strong> Hylands House was completed in<br />

2005 and today stands proud as a beautiful example<br />

<strong>of</strong> Neo-Classical architecture. Hylands Park and the<br />

house itself is quite simply a beautiful setting for the<br />

<strong>Duke</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Essex</strong> <strong>Polo</strong> <strong>Grand</strong> <strong>Prix</strong> combining tranquil<br />

landscaping, formal gardens and wide open space<br />

adventure areas.<br />

As a country park Hylands is unquestionably ‘Set for<br />

a King’ but for two days this Summer Hylands will<br />

undoubtedly be ‘Set for the Sport <strong>of</strong> Kings’.<br />
