Please can we ask everyone hiring our arenas to be mindful of others 😊 If you have a time slot booked, please keep to that time slot with only the riders booked. If you book an arena please do not use the other as well. If your horse leaves droppings in the arena they must be picked up. If we have to constantly monitor the arenas then the hire cost will increase. Thank you for your cooperation 😊
