Additional Details

This is a Meet full of long gallops up and down hills on turf around a beautiful family farm. We also cross the East Hendred Estate using tracks and bridleways with a long gallop up to the Ridgeway before returning to the farm. We have plenty of timber and logs to jump which are all optional fences. This meet offers a fantastic opportunity to view hounds working and is suitable for all levels of riding but you must be able to keep up whilst cantering in a group. A day with spectacular views is promised!
