“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.

***OPENING UPDATE***
Well wasn`t yesterday`s sun lovely while it lasted!
As you might imagine, the horrible wet winter has scuppered our plans to open on 1 March. We need a couple of weeks of drying weather to be able to move jumps and prepare the course, so it is looking like the earliest we will be opening our doors is mid-March. We`ll keep our website and social media channels updated so keep your eyes peeled 👀
Please note: When we do manage to open – and while the weather and ground are still so changeable – we will only be opening bookings 24 hours in advance to avoid large volumes of admin should we need to cancel at the last minute due to wet ground.
Looking forward to seeing you all here in sunnier, warmer climes soon!
