RIDING ACTIVITIES

The CSRC aims to organise good value riding activities in and around London for our members, covering all levels from beginner to advanced. Below is a list of our current regular activities - in addition, we sometimes arrange one-off activities, for example a dressage day or a day of hacking in the countryside. Keep an eye out for these in the News and Events section!

 

There are also opportunities to represent the Club in polo, dressage and show jumping competitions - reports from some recent events can be found in the Competitions section, and new opportunities will be advertised in the News section, in the newsletter and sometimes also by email.

 

If you are a member and would like to get involved with any of these activities contact the committee.

 

In the "Other places to ride" section you will find details of some other riding establishments, which are not all directly linked with the Club.

Vauxhall City Farm

Situated just south of the river, Vauxhall City Farm is a little oasis in the centre of London. Here, we arrange lessons for beginners to intermediate riders on Wednesday evenings.  More details...

The Barracks

Fancy riding one of these?  For confident intermediate to advanced riders, we offer the great opportunity to practice dressage on the horses of the Household Cavalry at Hyde Park Barracks on Tuesday nights.  More details...

Polo at Apsley End

Ever wanted to give polo a go? Monthly training sessions as well as the very popular and successful "introduction to polo" days are arranged at Apsley End in Hertfordshire, with the opportunity to take part in competitions too!  More details...

Lessons and hacking at Trent Park
 

Through our relations with the BBC Riding Club, we can join them for their Thursday evening ride at Trent Park, a BHS training centre in North London.  More details...

Lessons and hacking at Flemish Farm

The CSRC is affiliated with the Honourable Artillery Company Saddle Club, which means that we can ride at their stables at Flemish Farm, just outside Windsor. They have some lovely, well schooled horses and organise both dressage and jumping lessons, as well as hacking in Windsor Great Park.  All levels welcome.  More details...
