Clarification on booking procedure for Arena Hire.
In order to hire our arena you have the following options:
1) You can book the arena immediately by phoning us direct and making a card payment. There would be an additional small charge of £1.00 (if under £50) for the card processing, but once paid this will guarantee your booking date and time.
2) You can also send your booking request by Post, stating what day and rough time you require the arena hire with an enclosed cheque made out to HFEC, and your contact details. We would then contact you to confirm your booking or agree any revised booking. We can no longer take a booking over the phone with NO payment, as we have experienced a number of people who have made a booking with no payment, and then cancel at the last minute, therefore not allowing others to get the date and time they require.
Our rates are currently as follows:
1) Flat work – £15 / hr for two riders with an additional £5 / hr per additional horse.
2) Show Jumping – £20 / hr for two riders with an additional £5 / hr per additional horse. We provide six jumps with fillers and back poles (if requested) and you are free to move them as required. This rate also applies when we leave out a course of eight jumps after a competition (please refer to our programme of events for when a full course will be available for hire).
The above rates are based on normal daylight hours. Please refere to our main Price list and T&C for further information.
