Which XC Facility...

[jester_ben]

Hello fellow H&H Members!
Would really appriciate your help right now. Friend and other people from yard are thinking about doing a cross country lesson out of yard, but we do not know any facilities that does this (XC lesson) but with an ability to ride there horses (yes, we are all horseless).

Any ideas on where to look, any names or any actual places like this?

Thank you

The only thing i can think of is that some riding schools have their own xc courses and might be able to give you a lesson like that.
Sorry, not much help

Yes we take our school out jumpin xc fences tho only take experienced riders out and im sure u would need an assesment lesson before they let u jump any xc fences

Any of the BHS exam centers that do Stage 3 and above have XC because it's part of the exam so maybe try some of them.

Wellington, on the Hants/Berks border so just over an hour from London, have a XC course with a wide variety of jumps, and would probably be able to offer a short break riding holiday or a day XC schooling for a group.

Bury Farm at Slapton in Beds have a XC course but don't know if they do lessons over it - I would imagine so as they have a schooling field as well. Its about 15 mins from J11 of the M1.
