Events

Every year, shows are run at our centre from affiliated British Dressage and British Show jumping to grass roots unaffiliated dressage and show jumping. We offer  qualifiers, summer Championships and a winter points series.  The facilities, accessibility, location, setting and professional helpful staff make for a fantastic venue.

What’s more, we have great attractions on site to enhance your visit; including an Animal Zone (with over 1000 animals) and a coffee shop
