★★★★★Featured review by Steve Woodhead

Campervan hard standing. Busy and very top end equestrian centre with a side field for camping/vans etc. Very good communication with the management team. Excellent check in with lots of info about the place. Loos and showers clean and warm.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for horse-loving families who want to combine watching or participating in equestrian events with a quality meal. The cafe and spectator areas make it a comfortable full-day visit even for non-riders. Camping options suit families travelling from further afield for competition weekends. Clean, well-run, and reliably dog-friendly throughout.
