DOWNE FARM EVENT CENTRE
NEW ARENA!
The new 60 x 60 outdoor arena contains a full set of custom made show jumps and will ultimately also house an all-weather Cross Country Course which will adjoin our indoor arena by a track. Along with a new solarium for ours and clients horses, this new addition to the facility will mean that we can provide a fully equipped training facility all year round come rain or shine!
We are delighted that we are able to expand in this way with the help of a local action group LEADER grant and are really excited about our future as one of the top end equestrian training facilities in the South-West
