Beechwood is situated in a beautiful position in
the North Downs and Woldingham offers extensive
hacking with many bridleways. We have a wide
variety of lessons to offer our clients. As
riding is essentially an outdoor sport, we have
four outdoor ménages (as well as our indoor
school) - one is an international size
all-weather manège, with a surface of top grade
equisand which is superb to ride on, another
oversize sand school, a grass school and a wood
fibre school. We have a large jumping paddock
with a full set of professionally manufactured
showjumps, including the Devil's Staircase, a
Dipped Park Gate, a convincing wall and our own
special combination - the sheep pen, including
logs, sheep hurdles, rustic spread and uprights,
providing a good varied and fluent course for
all levels wishing to experience jumping a
tailor-made course. Our inviting cross-country
course, to which we are continually adding
fences, allows the more experienced riders to
meet gradients, drop fences, spreads and a
ditch.
Lessons available Tuesday to Sunday for all
riding abilities. Horses range from 12.0hh to
17.2hh. Plenty of Children and Adult group
lessons to choose from. Hacking directly out on
to Chobham Common – no road work.
