Hampshire/Devon peeps - advice please re training facilities!

[FrecklesMum]

I have finally got a job in New Forest (yay - no more london!!) and so am in the process of moving 'down south'. However, having been a Herts/London girl all my life, I know next to nothing about the New Forest and its events, etc.

The horse is off to boot camp near my parents in Feb/March whilst I move, find a yard, etc and I was wondering if any of you could tell me about training/schjooling venues local to the area?

Where I am is Keysoe, Patchetts, etc, and I don't know what there is down there! Could anyone suggest some locations that have XC schooling, XC comps, SJ comps, etc?!!

Also, what are the big local shows aside from New Forest?

The New Forest isnt very near to Devon!
You'll be close to Wiltshire and Dorset- there are plenty of equestrian venues. This is a good website- http://www.nfed.co.uk/
