Dogs are only permitted with prior permission, must be kept on a lead, and must not enter arenas in use, stable blocks, feed rooms, or paddocks with horses.

A riding hat meeting a current recognised safety standard must be worn at all times when mounted, and suitable footwear should be worn. Body protectors are strongly recommended for jumping, fast work, young horses, and clinic activities.

Please drive slowly (5mph), park considerately, and follow any directions from yard management - especially during busy periods and events.

For safety, loading/unloading should keep horses clear, secure gates, and maintain safe separation.

All under-18s must be supervised by a responsible adult at all times (unless specific written permission is granted). Children must not play in stable blocks, hay/straw areas, muck heaps, car parks, or arenas in use.

Please only use lights when necessary and turn them off immediately after your session ends.

Outdoor arena lighting may be restricted (planning requirements) - we’ll advise if this affects your booking.

The NLE App is used to access policies and yard documents, receive important notifications, and (for liveries) book arenas / facilities and store horse info.

Not currently. Please contact us first to arrange any facility hire or clinic hosting. We may use the app afterwards for paperwork or documents.

No - the app is not an emergency system and must not be relied on in urgent situations. For emergencies, call 999 where appropriate and contact yard management by phone / in person.

Yes - CCTV is used for safety, security, and incident investigation where necessary, with signage in operation areas.

Private cameras or recording devices are not permitted without prior written approval from yard management.

If permission is granted, audio recording must be disabled and cameras must only record the approved area (e.g., inside the stable, not aisles/doorways/other stables).

If there’s immediate danger, call 999 first. Then contact yard management.

Yard emergency contact: Andy - 07917 333412.

We’ll contact you immediately. In an emergency, if you can’t be reached, yard management may act in the horse’s best welfare interests based on available consent/emergency contacts.

Please report it to yard management immediately. Incidents should be recorded in the yard log and via the NLE App where available.

Feed and supplements aren’t included in livery packages, but can be arranged separately. Speak to Andy for options.

Please keep the muck heap tidy and stepped up properly. Don’t leave large round bales on the muck heap - these should be removed from the premises.
