Cross Country Schooling

convert · 09-02-2023 10:40pm #1

Can anyone recommend somewhere that offers cross country schooling (i.e. where I can bring an inexperienced horse and school around the course at my leisure, choosing what I jump, etc.). Somewhere in Kildare, Wicklow, Carlow, South Dublin, East Laois, East Offaly, and North Wexford would be idea.

Thanks.

Hello there!

what about equipark in Carlow?. Aimed particularly at schooling young horses I think.

Carlanstown in Meath is meant to be great: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057140303048

Devils Glen in Wicklow is very good: https://www.facebook.com/DevilsGlenEquestrian

Grange farm in Kilcock has a smaller set up but a good number of fences, banks, ditches and water: https://www.facebook.com/salcorscadden

Can certainly recommend Carlanstown and Grange Farm, and also

Abbeyfield farm (Clane) https://abbeyfieldfarm.com/

Greenogue Equestrian (Rathcoole) which has a Derby arena for XC schooling https://greenogueequestrian.ie/derby-arena/

The field in Laois in great too. They do ask you to join their 'club' but it's only €2 for the year then it's 25 to use their facilities. (you can pay €60 for the year but each booking you make is then €12.50 for use of facilities.)

It's got an all weather track too. https://thefieldequestriancentre.ie/
