Pontispool’s facilities include very large arenas, extensive cross country course, stabling, haylage or hay & straw provided, good accommodation, toilets and showers, all food and instruction, included within the price. Camp numbers are restricted to a maximum of 24, in order that we can limit group numbers to 6, however there needs to be minimum of 10 people for it to go ahead. Camps are always very popular and you will need to send your application form and cheque in early to secure your place and avoid disappointment.
Pontispool will also be providing us with all our meals, which is included in the price. The food is excellent and includes a full cooked breakfast, or cereal and toast if you prefer, lunch, cake and evening meal including a variety of delicious home cooked deserts! Once application forms and cheques are received we will organise a more specific timetable and group riders according to experience and ability. Any horse & rider combination who have not attended a Bath Riding Club camp, or have not attended a Bath Riding Club SJ/XC lesson in the last 6 months will be required to attend a training session prior to camp. This is to ensure they are put in the most appropriate group at camp and are able to get the most out of the weekend. In addition horse/riders will not be allowed to go out on the XC course until their instructor is happy with their jumping ability in the school. We will endeavour to arrange alternative gridwork/SJ lessons instead. This measure has been brought in to ensure the safety of both horse and rider. Our camps are aimed at adults (over 17), however older children may be able attend if accompanied by an adult, subject to space. For those 17 and under, please contact Jo for details of spaces, prior to sending form and cheque.
