This year’s Royal Windsor Horse Show, which finishes today (17 May 2015), has us thinking that an equestrian property in the Royal County of Berkshire wouldn’t be a bad idea. With polo at Guards and the The Royal County of Berkshire Polo Club and racing at Ascot, it’s a haven of equestrian activity.
Take a look at our pick of dream properties in Berkshire — think horse walkers, swimming pools, polo fields, bowling alleys and tennis courts. We just need to win the lottery now…
