Vale View

[ihatework]

Can any locals give me insider info Vale View for dressage?

If I can get my medium sheets before then tentatively thinking of making it a weekend trip for the Ele & Med petplans,

What are schools & stabling like?
Does it have good catering & showers if I stay in lorry or would I be better looking for a B&B within walking distance?

Thankies

Can't help you very much as I've only jumped there and I'm not sure which schools they use for the dressage (there's two outdoors and two indoors). However I doubt you'll find a B&B in walking distance - it's a bit rural!

Thanks Both!

I'm only doing 3 mediums between now and end of August so it's all tentative at the moment as not trekking all that way just for the Ele. If I get the sheets I need for the Medium I'll give the B&B a call to see if there is room And it is by a pub, bonus!

They have showers onsite, and a decent cafe, although worth finding out beforehand what its opening hours will be the surfaces are good, and you'll either be in the new indoor or the big outdoor for your tests at that time of year.

It's a decent walk up a big hill from the B&B to Vale View!

There's a hotel just off the a46, a long walk but couple of minutes in a car/lorry.

Wench - do you mean The Willoughby? It's not a hotel any more.
