Stabling is provided on site, and an on-site cafe offers refreshments throughout the day for riders, owners and spectators.
Disciplines on offer centre on cross country, with a programme that includes competitions, schooling days, training clinics and holiday camps. Equestrian holidays are available, with on-site accommodation making it straightforward for riders to spend several days working their horses across the different facilities. The mix of permanent fixtures and temporary courses is intended to suit riders working at a range of levels.
