I heard good things about it from someone who loaned their horse to them but it was a few years ago now...

 

[Sanolly]

Squeak how many years ago? Who was the horse?

 

[tillyd]

really, do you mind pm'ing me?

I havnt loaned with either but have heard Merist Wood is better to loan to than BCA, although there may be somebody else who say otherwise. My friend went to merist wood with her horse then left it there when she left and said it did hers good, but there may be somebody who says something different may be worth visiting both places then you can compare.

 

[tillyd]

thanks, will have a look at Merrist - am thinking I am probably going to stick to looking for a private loan but just not many people around at the moment! thanks all.

Have seen some current/previous students there ride - generally shocking unless they went there with good skills to start with, and honestly wouldn't let any of those people near my horse, let alone on it!
