Bardwell Manor Equestrian Centre was established in 1996 and is run by husband and wife team Sharon and Karl Dawson.

Bardwell Manor Equestrian Centre is situated just off the A143 outside of Ixworth,Suffolk. Between Bury St.Edmunds, Diss and Thetford.

Both Karl and Sharon are fully qualified instructors and have taught many people to ride over the years.

All our riders are encouraged to improve by taking the Association of British Riding Schools tests, which are offered in both riding and horsecare.

We are local to the network of bridleways and tracks known as ‘The Stanton Rides’ which offers 18 miles of riding.

We currently only offer working liveries at Bardwell Manor Equestrian Centre.

Bardwell Manor Equestrian Centre can now offer you the opportunity to bring your own horse on holiday. Between April and October you can bring your horse(s) and either chose to camp on site in your horsebox, tent or caravan, or to stay in local accommodation. Horses can either be accommodated in stables or post and rail paddocks (or a mixture of both). We have toilet and shower facilities on site for campers to use and electrical hook up available for horseboxes or caravans if required.

Please contact us for further information and the availability of places and current pricing for liveries.
