WELCOME to our new website.

Rosie Lord - Owner & Director

Hello and welcome to www.brc.uk.com.

We have designed this website to give you a good overview of the Centre.  If you are new to us, then hopefully this site will describe who we are, what we stand for and what services and facilities we offer. If you already know us the site is to keep you up-to-date, let you know about shows, events, clinics etc.

However nothing beats seeing us for yourselves, so read the site and call with any questions or just turn up and visit us. Enter the website by the menu bar above, selecting what ever interests you; alternatively move about by the various hot buttons littered around the site. Treat this page like a newspaper , it contains a summary of important news, and points you to different places in the site for more detail. Do scroll down.

We recently opened our new reception and training centre which has proved very popular. Do use it to book in, pay your bill or just wait while your child or freind have their lesson and watch them through the large windows. Its' heated so you'll stay warm.

 

Horses for sale: a new area of our business. Currently we have a 15.2HH  9 year old gelding. See horses for sale section. We can also help clients buy horses ask us!

Email:  Whilst we've always had email for the Centre, we haven't always had an internet connection on the yard. Well we do now, so feel free to make email bookings for lessons, send messages to the yard etc. Send them to info@brc.uk.com.

Want to give an unusual present and lost for an idea or do you want to "own" a horse without buying one , simple see below? Want to give a birthday party for your child with an equestrian theme call us we can help?

New Reception / training Centre

You can now book here for lessons, pay your bill or just wait inside and watch your child , or whoever, having their lesson in comfort. For tea and coffee help yourself, we operate an honour bar system just leave 30p in the tin. Alternatively cold drinks are availble from the vending machine located just outside the office.

 From time to time courses will also be run from here.

Stables in barn - upgrade:

The refurbishment of the stables in the barn is now complete and they look great - come and see for yourself. We now have six stables, a tack room, wash area and storage area, all on a drained solid base.

 

Horse Loan:  Would you like to (almost) own a horse, but not actually have to buy one! From time to time we are able to arrange a loan on one of our school horses. Note : this is only available to those who regularly take lessons with us.

For about half the full-livery rate (£250) one of our horses would be allocated to you, whilst we would still use the horse for lessons, you would be guaranteed 4 hours riding a week. As a livery client you would be entitled to our discounted lesson rate.

Contact Rosie if you are interested. Look upon this as a minimum three month commitment. Payment is monthly in advance by standing order. 

Present Idea: Are  you at a loss for ideas? Why not give a riding lesson voucher from the Berkshire Riding Centre to that special person? Whether it be one lesson, several or a complete course we can help you make that special gift.  To arrange email us - info@brc.uk.com or go to contact us page. Alternatively call on 01344-884992.

Pony Club Sweat shirts - now available, most sizes ... see Pony Club page.

Birthday Party: do you want to organise a birthday party for your daughter or son? Call us we can arrange a unique birthday party to mark that special day. Children must be 6 or over. Call on 01344-884992 to discuss. If you get our answer machine, leave a message and we will get back to you quickly.

Radio Berkshire were at the Centre recently making a live broadcast on riding, taking advantage of the great facilities we have. Many people called us afterwards to say they had heard it!

Indoor School Watering System:

You might be wondering what the two large tanks are at the car park side of the indoor school?

Rain Water Holding TanksThey collect rain water from the roof of the indoor school. This is fed into a third holding tank and feeds automatic sprinklers which are hidden in the wooden surrounds of the indoor school.

A series of twelve sprinklers automatically go on at 12:30am to keep the surface just right. Also environmentally friendly!
