Riding Club recommendations - Central Scotland?

[Jingleballs]

That's my trailer now confirmed and it will be delivered in the next few weeks - WOO HOO!

I'm keen to get out and about at least once a month so I was planning on joining a local riding club.

Some of my friends have just joined Polnoon but I'm open to other suggestions. I'd like a friendly club who won't look down on my for my lack of riding and showing experience and one that does dressage and isn't just based on jumping (not very good at that yet).

Any recommendations - I'm in North Lanarkshire but willing to travel 30 - 40 minutes to venues.

Would peebles and district be too far for you? I joined 2 years ago when my lad was 4 and they're a really friendly bunch. Most of their stuff is either at Elsrickle or Biggar and theres always lots going on.
Im not really familiar with any other clubs in the area, Im a relatively recent west coast deserter!

It may be waaay to far away but North Ayrshire Riding and Le TREC Club ?

Have a look on here for some club contacts to try getting in touch with;

BRC- Area 1 & 22 Club list

I'm a member of Almond RC who have training days at SNEC, just outside Livingston, quite dressage orientated as well as jumping. May be a bit of a trek for you though and there's bound to be as good clubs closer.

I'd second Almond - must remember subscription is overdue!

Ah, hello fellow Almond member!

Have you received the email about their planned events for this year? They talked about beach rides, fun rides and an adult summer camp!

All sounds really good.
