Marbella’s equestrian lifestyle

Horses have long been close to the heart of Andalusians, and the status of the equine world has never been higher than it is today. Indeed, equestrianism forms a central part of the lifestyle offered by some of the most luxurious residential areas of Marbella and the Costa del Sol, with world-class facilities available to horse enthusiasts.

Indeed, country clubs such as Club de Campo La Zagaleta and Marbella Club Golf Resort have created some of the finest stables to be found in Spain, with excellent facilities and extensive riding trails through the mountains and leafy countryside around Marbella. La Zagaleta is one of the most exclusive of the equestrian centres in the region, with the members-only club boasting two arenas, private instruction and a selection of Arab and Spanish horses for the use of residents.

Marbella Club Golf Resort’s stables are similarly well appointed, with the centre hosting the Spanish National Showjumping Championships. Slightly further afield, the famous fields of Santa María Polo Club at Sotogrande are an elegant symbol of the world-class amenities available in Andalucía.

Each of these highly desirable areas has a selection of fine luxury properties available for sale. Superbly well-appointed, with magnificent five-star amenities and offering privacy in a rural setting they offer the chance to enjoy the perfect equestrian lifestyle.
