If you go on the British Dressage website and click on trainers you will find a whole list for your area.

Sue Petty is the best in the area (IMO). She'll travel if you've got several horses.

I don't know if he will travel or not, but I have been going to Sam Twyman for the last few months - mainly to have lessons on his schoolmasters and then yesterday I took my Novice eventer down there for his first lesson. I like Sam's approach, but he is very much putting the basics in place before I am allowed to do anything interesting (which is the right thing to do I think). My rider marks have gone up by 1-2 marks since I have been going there (from 6/7 to a consistent 8). He is also a sensible price meaning I can go once a fortnight which helps!

Have a look at: http://www.dovecote-stables.co.uk/dcs/

Try Virginia Peters based at Stretcholt, Nr Bridgwater. Ex Grand Prix rider and very disciplined in her approach. I had a lesson with one of her pupils the other day who is competing at PSG and it was really interesting. My trainer who is at 4* also goes to her. Most people tend to go to Virginia rather than her coming to you but worth a try.

I can also vouch for Virginia. I've been going once a month to her Dressage Clinic for the last 6 months and there has been a noticable inprovement in Mine and My horses performance.

Not sure if she will travel but the facilities at Stretcholt are excellent
