“A wonderful cross-country site, interesting and beautifully maintained, with so many different types of fences – a far cry from a collection of boring roll-tops”
Lucinda Green, six-times Badminton winner
Lodge Farm Cross-Country Course offers more than 90 fences from 60cm to 1.10m including ditches, corners, arrowheads, skinnies, steps, lots of combinations plus two water complexes. The terrain is principally flat, but there is good use made of the natural features.
Set in 40 acres of well-maintained grassland it is ideal for schooling young horses, for a quick pre-event practice over a course of fences or for a training session with your instructor.
All fences have prepared take-offs and landings and the excellent viewing makes our course popular with instructors and parents.
Top riders who visit us on a regular basis include Francis Whittington, Will Furlong, Felicity Collins, Tom Crisp and Camilla Kruger.
We are open Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, plus some extra days during school holidays, from the beginning of March until the end of October. Easy parking and good access from the M25 and A21.

📣We’ve had a welcome day of heavy showers today and the grass is looking greener than ever. Despite the lack of rain we’ve had so much brilliant feedback about our ground recently, which is great to hear! Weekly mowing means that we have fantastic grass cover and all our jumps have all-weather take-offs and landings.
✍️Next week we will be open some extra days for half term: Bank Holiday Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.

We are gearing up for and getting excited about this year’s Eventers Challenge on 8 June. If you are looking for a condensed format eventing competition, look no further. 🐎
What you can expect… Riders first complete the show jumping course of approximately 8 fences, then continue straight onto the cross-country, which will consist of approximately 10 obstacles with the winner being the closest to the optimum time. ⏱️
There will be a much larger warm up area than last year and we are also offering clear round jumping (enter online or pay on the day).
All classes also count as Sunshine Tour qualifiers. Rosettes awarded to 10th place, with some super prizes also available! 🏆
So, no matter your level, there is something for you to get involved with. Who knows? Maybe you’ll surprise yourself and head home with a ticket to Hickstead! 🤩
Thank you to @inhandequineosteopathy, @rhnsaddlery and @lrg_photography for supporting us again with this event.
Entries are open NOW on MyRidingLife (link in bio). We can’t wait to see you on the 8th June!
