It's Ben Dunnings yard. I know they do residential training.

Isn't that his son???

Tony prob is still involved somehow I'd have thought.

I've been to a party there once, seemed nice, but there again there was a hog roast / mechanical bull thingy and all sorts set up in the indoor school!

Both Tony and Fiona are excellent teachers, I used to have regular lessons with Fiona . I don't know if they teach on their own horses but I wouldn't have thought so unless you are a riding at a very high standard, but maybe wrong so worth checking!
