We’re so excited to share that the arena works are going brilliantly!

A huge thank you to Chart Arenas, who have absolutely smashed through the project so far — and thankfully, the weather has been very kind to us too! ☀️

Everything is currently looking on track to be completed by the end of next week, which is fantastic news.

Lessons in the arena are now back on the website and ready to book via ECPro. 🎉

We’re also really excited to be keeping our new field arenas open for the rest of the summer. The horses have absolutely loved the variety and change in their lessons, and we hope you’ve enjoyed it too!

Thank you, as always, for your patience and support while the improvements have been underway. We can’t wait for you all to enjoy the finished arena. 🐎✨
