Our Facilities

We have excellent facilities, which are available to help you enjoy your riding. We have a 20m x 40m floodlit arena (which has a rubber surface, not dusty) where there is plenty room to do flat work and some really good jumping exercises. We have a range of show jumps and also in the summer we have some cross country jumps, which takes up to five horses/ponies at a time.
