I'm not sure how the livery terms work out, pretty expensive I think and not sure about the turnout.
However, fabulous facilities, three arenas - 2 indoor and one large outdoor. Cross country course is okay, used to be a BE event site but they don't seem to do that anymore. They have a few BSJA shows in the winter and seem to have dressage fairly regularly.
Not sure about the hacking, thinks is okay, there seems to be some woods around to ride in. Do you want to go there particulary or just that area?

Is your horse going to be in working livery on DIY livery?
Only because when I was there I heard from others you barely got to ride your horse when you wanted if it was being used, plus rarely get to use the arenas?
Not sure if this is true but what I heard from liveries when I was there.

I was a full time student at Duchy from 1990 = 1991
There stables and facilities were very good back then.And i am sure there have been many improvements scince i was there.
I was a working pupil and they have a very strict routine ,the horses there were ridden and looked after by the students of all abilities training from BHS stage 1 upwards.
