Great arena for dogs, plenty of space. Carpark can be really muddy though and if the weather is a bit cooler it can be absolutely freezing inside so take something warm to wear

Not the easiest to find but lovely centre, beautiful arenas to ride in and stabling was clean and draught free, many thanks to Shirley for being so accommodating as we arrived late in the evening

Great venue, attended for horse shows and more recently a dog show. Car park very muddy in winter but to be expected 🙂
