Welcome to Comphurst Cross Country

We have shut for the season because of the rain. We are still open for dressage lessons.

We hope to see all our lovely customers again next year!

 

 

 

Comphurst Field ( by the arena) and Birches (next to Comphurst field) and Castle field (by the lorry park)  are open. Parking is on the hard standing. If you have a large lorry, please park at the top of Castle field. 

 

There is excellent grass cover, with all-weather take-off and landing pads. These are designed so that the sand that we laid down is covered by grass, giving the best possible support for jumping. We have mown the fields and strimmed the jumps.

If the time you would like to come is not on offer on our booking system, please text your requirements to 07541032398 and we will do our best to accommodate you.  

 

Dressage lessons are available over either as test-riding or flatwork training in our 25x60 Bill Kear school with mirrors. Training with Tanya Reid, BD Coach, BD Youth Coach, BE dressage judge,  BD Judge List 4 Judge.  Cost £40.00

Cross Country lessons; Individual; £55.00, shared £45.00 (price includes course hire).

Show jumping lessons available at £40.00 and you are welcome to share.

 

Please do not simply arrive without following the above procedure. 

 

 

DOGS...
At Comphurst, we have always welcomed people with dogs accompanying riders, as long as the dogs are under control, on a short lead and their owners pick up any dog mess. HOWEVER, we have been open a week and I have already found 5 loose dogs on the course so I am seriously reviewing this. Your dog may not cause a problem for you as it gambles about, but it may cause an issue for another user of the course, and it nullifies our insurance. Can I please politely ask, if you cannot keep your dog on a short lead, do not bring it with you? Other venues do not allow dogs and we may soon adopt this policy.
For full terms, please read the disclaimer.
 
Government guidelines re COVID-19; please follow the latest government guidelines.

We have over 250 jumps ranging from 30cm to 1.20m and cater for all standards and abilities. Comphurst is the perfect place for professionals, riding and pony clubs, young horses having their first xc session, children, and groups of friends wanting a fun day out. we pride ourselves in our high standards, with jumps built to BE specifications and every sort of fence you are likely to meet at a Horse Trials, from banks, ditches, Trakheners, steps, skinnies, wishing wells. a whole range of Badminton Grassroots jumps and, of course, our wonderful natural water complex. We really look after our ground; we are on sand and have a regular programme of mowing, strimming, topping, grazing in the winter and we are top up our take offs and landings throughout the year.

Book a time slot and stay as long as you like!
