Nutwell nr Exmouth hires out sometimes.

There's California Cross nr Kingsbridge.

One near Truro, need to have a little think of what its called though.

I suppose it depends where you are and how far you want to travel. Cornwall and Devon is a very large area.

the one near Truro is Chyverton - I am hoping to go and do the Derby show there in September.

Which area are you looking for, there are several good ones in Devon but a vaugue idea of area will help which I recommend!

Any area, I'm quite happy to travel, and Im slap bang in the middle of them both, so just curious as to whats around

Southcott near Winkleigh has lots of variety, friendly owners and a loo!
Bicton near Budleigh Salterton (past Exeter) has a newly constructed course with options from very small to Intermediate fences, my daughter rode round their biggest course yesterday and rated it good.
The Grange near Okehampton offers lots of XC fences but they need to cut their hay before you can use it this year.
The South Devon Moorland PC near Widecombe in the Moor open their course occasionally, but access is difficult and it's twisty little course with lots of rocks and little galloping.
My daughter Cazcrazyjonty on here is always looking for people to take our young horses schooling with, so pm her if you fancy some company.

Thank you muchly for all your suggestions! I'm gonna do some sessions by myself first, but then when more confident then I'll look up your daughter henryhorn!!

Thanks all!

Down here there's Chyverton as others have said, that's a lovely course and really nicely built, lots of different height options, nice water complex. It's a very compact course but my favourite out of the courses down here.

Then there's Scorrier, which is huge, spread over loads of fields and again nicely built.

Lower Tokenbury is nice, we photographed a ODE about a month ago up there.
