Where do we train?

 

Where do we train?

In Summer we train outdoors at Furness Rugby Ground, Strawberry Fields on Tuesday and Wednesday evening and sometimes, if we are not at shows, on Sunday afternoon. In winter (and if it rains in summer) we train indoors at Highfield Equestrian Centre.
Have a look at directions to the venues and come along and see us.
Full details of where we are training on a particular day are on the Home Page

After about ½ mile, you will reach some buildings on the road on your left. The turning is in the middle of these ( you’ll see 1 Highfield Cottages on the side of a white cottage as you turn in). Park on the left & the entrance to the barn is on your left.

2.  Turn up Long Lane at the top of Mill Brow.  Follow this road past the Newton/Dalton cross road.  You will pass a row of cottages on the right hand side.   Take the next road on the left after these cottages.   Follow  this road and take the first turning on the right hand side signposted Lindal and Urswick.  After about ½ mile, you will reach some buildings on the road on your left. The turning is in the middle of these ( you’ll see 1 Highfield Cottages on the side of a white cottage as you turn in). Park on the left & the entrance to the barn is on your left.

From Ulverston
Follow the road into Dalton.  Go through Dalton and at the bottom of the hill turn left to the station down Station Road (first left after David Atkinson Car Sales Showroom – green frontage with gold lettering.)  Stay on this road round the bends & over the railway bridge. The road bears to the left & after about ½ mile you will pass a scruffy pond on the right. Take the next left turn down a lane signed Lindal & Urswick (signpost might be hidden by hedge).
