Have entered Brook farm on Sunday and have never been before. Had a look on the web but couldn't find a site.

Has anyone been what's it like? We are taking Blitz so any info would be really grateful, PM me if you prefer.

Thank you

I hear it has a good warm up, decent indoor with no mirrors and is well run.
But the lorry parking is meant to be quite a way from the riding....

I'm going there in a couple of weeks I think so let me know what you think!
 
It shouldn't be, although the later you get there the further you'd be! I approved it for BD in my very brief tenure as RDO

. The indoor has a lovely surface, it will have an arena built within it if you see what I mean.
 
It's a lovely venue. The main arena is fantastic but will only do 20x40. My horse found it very spooky the first time he went but he's very impressionable! The warm up is undercover and the surface can get deep after a while but I've heard they are looking to improve it.
 
Oooh, distinctly do-able from my part of the world then (up the A12). Might take a look around next time there's something on (really need to get off my backside and explore the area now!)
 
Its only 10mins away from me, was so excited when they started doing BD. Great indoor school, like someone else said the warmup can be a little deep but its covered which is nice in the weather we have been having. Great canteen, very smoothly run and such a friendly atmosphere. They do unaff, trailblazers and have just started a thurs eve sj night.
Only downside I can find is it is set on an 'industrial' sort of area ie there are a few warehouses about and a tip that often has rubbish blowing about in it which my mare hates but it isn't that bad and nowhere is perfect.
