Stables are provided with a day bed of Aubiouse included - additional bedding can be purchased on site. Please note paddocks are on a slope. Hay is included. Bring extra feed as needed plus water buckets. Pre-requisites – This is a ridden camp, riding in a group with others. Minimum requirement = happy to ride at ridden walk and trot in arena over poles, and at ridden walk in an enclosed grass field (pole work is based on ridden work, but obstacle sessions in field can all be done both ridden &/or from the ground). While horsemanship is at the forefront of this camp, this camp is aimed at putting purpose to ridden exercises, rather than a troubleshooting/problem solving camp. We request that the ridden and groundwork basics are in place with your horse to attend this camp. If you are unsure about the suitability, please get in touch with Sally. The venue has a large all weather arena and also a grass playfield with obstacles. There is a separate camping area for humans, and a separate fenced paddock area for horses. The obstacle field is a 5-10 minute walk (on a private track) from the arena/paddocks/stables and Brandy House Farm is situated on a hill. The tracks around Brandy House Farm are stoney so barefoot horses may require hoof boots. Toilet, shower, small fridge, freezer, kettle & microwave available. Provide your own drinks & meals - pub or ‘Brandy House takeaway’ options available in evenings. *Public Liability insurance is required by Brandy House Farm. This is provided under BHS Gold membership or usually included in most Horse insurance policies. *The venue accepts dogs by prior arrangement (at additional cost). They must be kept on leads at all times and not left unattended in any Brandy House accommodation unless crated.
