FAQs
How do I get to Burghley House?
By train: East Midlands Railway runs to Stamford from both Leicester and Peterborough (good connections from London King's Cross to Peterborough). Stamford station is about a 10-minute taxi ride from the showground. By car: Burghley is well signposted from the A1 near Stamford. Parking on site is included in most ticket packages — arrive early on Champions Day as it fills up fast.
Is there a dress code?
No strict dress code, but Burghley has a wonderfully traditional feel — think smart country casual. Wellies or sturdy walking shoes are a must if the ground is soft. The grandstand tends to draw a smarter crowd, so a blazer or smart jacket fits right in up there.
What time does the showjumping start on Sunday?
Gates typically open from 7:30am on Champions Day. Showjumping usually begins around 10:00am, with the leading combinations going last and the presentation ceremony in the early afternoon. Check the official Burghley programme on the day for exact start times.
Are grandstand tickets worth it?
Absolutely — they sell out every year for good reason. You get an unobstructed view of the entire showjumping arena, a reserved seat so you're not on your feet all morning, and the best view of the trophy presentation. If you can get one, grab it.
What are the best pubs and places to eat nearby?
Stamford is one of England's most beautiful small towns and is packed with great options. The George of Stamford on St Martins is a classic coaching inn — excellent for a post-event dinner. The Bull and Swan at Barnack is lovely for a quieter pint. There's also a huge trade village on site with food stalls, so plenty to keep you going through the day.
Can I bring a picnic?
Yes — and it's very much encouraged! Burghley is famous for its picnic culture. You're welcome to bring food and non-alcoholic drinks. Alcohol brought on site is generally not permitted (there are plenty of bars and hospitality options inside). Find yourself a good spot near the Orangery or along the course early in the morning.
