So I've finally persuaded the OH to move out of SW London westbound to Surrey. The purpose of the move is to enable me to get a horse and live within a decent distance of which ever livery yard I end up on and for the OH to enjoy his cycling. He needs to get to Weybridge daily and I need to get to Richmond for work (m3).
I'm really looking for advice on areas, where to avoid etc. We've been for a drive around and I'm liking Chobham and surrounds. There appears to be loads of livery yards around here and plenty of off road riding. OH isn't so keen as theres no rail links from here. He would prefer further westward or even round to Dorking (better cycling apparently). I'm not sure what the horse scene is like here or beyong. We do like farnham but its probably too far for me to get into work. What's woking like?
I'd really appreciate the low down on the equestrian scene in surrey. Where are the areas that combine a good selection of livery yards, equestrain services..vets, farrier etc, off road riding, easy access to competitions etc. I know its a huge question but any bits of info will help me build up an understanding and picture of the area.
Many thanks in advance!
