Where the rhythm of hooves, meets the stillness of the land.
Where the rhythm of hooves,
meets the stillness of the land.
Tamodi is a place where polo isn’t just played, it’s lived. Set within vast, forest-framed fields and long golden light, the game finds a slower, deeper rhythm here. This is polo with space to breathe: no crowds, no pressure, just the sound of the mallet, the breath of your horse, and the world falling away.
Fields shaped by nature, refined by purpose.
Tucked between forest and ridgeline, Tamodi is surrounded by fields and feels carved into the land itself. Perfectly maintained and open to the elements, they are designed for high-goal practice and relaxed play alike. There are no stadiums here, no grandstands, just the earth beneath you and the wide sky above.
This is a place where training feels meditative. Where the horses move with ease. Where the field becomes part of the landscape, and the game returns to its purest form.

Quiet sessions, focused training, and the freedom to ride your way.
Daily rides take on a new energy here. The field welcomes private stick-and-ball sessions, morning gallops, or structured team drills. There’s no set agenda, just space, freedom, and support when you need it.
Our on-site team ensures every session runs seamlessly, whether you’re preparing for a tournament or simply reconnecting with your horse.
Tamodi offers riders and their teams a space to train, rest, and reset between matches, close to the action, yet apart from the noise.
This is where performance is refined, championships are chased, and the love of the game is matched only by the passion to win.
From November through April, the Garden Route becomes a magnet for serious polo. At Tamodi, tournament season pulses with energy, horses in motion, strategy in play, the air alive with adrenaline and precision.
Whether it’s the high-goal Formosa Cup, the elegance of the Ladies Open, or the fierce tradition of the SA Open, each event brings together a refined but deeply competitive crowd. Practice turns into preparation. Casual rides give way to disciplined routines. The pace quickens, and the field becomes a stage.
How the light, the air, and the land shape the way you ride.
Polo at Tamodi follows nature’s pace. Summer brings long, golden evenings and dry turf. Winter mists invite morning rides through silence. Every season offers something different, different light, different energy, different breath.
Whether you’re here for a weekend or a full season of training, Tamodi shapes itself to your needs.
Trail rides, slow rides, soul rides, explore on horseback, no scoreboard required.
Explore the estate on horseback, through forest trails, along grassy ridgelines, into the hush of eucalyptus groves. Ride at sunrise, ride by moonlight, ride alone or with someone you love. These are rides you’ll remember long after your boots are off.
Polo lives beyond the estate, along quiet coastlines and storied fields.
Beyond Tamodi, a rich equestrian community thrives. We’re just a short ride or drive from other private fields and seasonal polo events along the Garden Route. And yet, when you’re here, it feels as if you’ve stepped out of time.
Quiet coastlines, hidden valleys, and distant mountains create the backdrop for a polo life lived at your own pace.
