Has anyone done BD at Willerby Hill, East Yorkshire? Im thinking of going over to compete there but would like to know what its like. Any info would be much appreciated. It looks lovely on their website! Thankies x

I went there about 4 years ago, the warm up has a roof over the top, not the biggest but not the smallest, probably about 20x40 size. Indoor is about 30x60. I enjoyed competing there and if I was back in Yorkshire I would go there again.

They have probably expanded since you were last there. Haven't been for dressage but for BSJA there was a covered small warm up, plus two indoor schools - one maybe 30x60 which had practise fences in and another larger one for competing. Haven't been too often but everything seemed fairly efficient.

Ah i remember the second indoor arena now, only went in there once or twice.

I went last year. I personally didnt like the warmup. There are conifers down one side and parking on the other, my horse was very spooky as she could hear things going on but couldnt see what. The test arenas are nice though. Oh and they gave out small rosettes.

Apart from that its OK.

If you are not far away why not pop down this weekend? They have got the Northern Regionals there (Thurs - Sun).

I have found the organiser to be very friendly and helpful
