Richmond Equestrian Centre
Andrew, a North Yorkshire farmer, haulier & hardworking business man, bought Breckenbrough Farm, home of Richmond Equestrian Centre, in 2018. Andrew, Abigail, their two children, Lydia & Henry and their menagerie of horses, dogs and cats all live on site in the family farm house.

With over 30 years of successful farming and business experience, Andrew plans to take Richmond Equestrian Centre to a 5 star level by renovating and improving the facilities here and introducing his professional and clean cut business approach.
Services
Our Cafe and new, open style seating area can accommodate around 100 people (over 200 if including the additional Conference room and standing areas). We have a beautiful double sided Chesney's log burner making the caf cosy and warm, as well as separate male and female toilets and a specific disabled toilet, (we are also in the process of getting a walk in shower area installed).
There is a volunteering role for everyone - even if you have never volunteered before or have no horse knowledge! You will get refreshments throughout the day as well as a voucher as a thank you - those volunteering for a full day receive a free facility hire (or 25 voucher) and those volunteering for a half day receive a 10 voucher.
All our arenas have been recently refurbished with Equestrian Surfaces non waxed economy track. Each arena has its own individual water sprinkler system, to keep the arena surface at its best. Our arenas are also graded regularly, with a top of the range Arenamate grading machine - so our clients get the perfect ride every time.
If you experience any difficulties making a booking or would like support please text 07798 626075. The Breckenbrough Arena, 20mx60m Outdoor, can be hired out as a 20mx40m or a 20mx60m Dressage Arena with tall dressage marker towers & boarding by contacting the office direct. 25/hour or 12.50/half hour.
We have an extensive range of competition facilities that are available for private or external hire throughout the year. Other arenas must not be used as a "warm-up" - you must only enter the arena(s) you have hired. Your time slot includes warm up time. For details of hire and prices please contact us on 07564 025959 to discuss your individual requirement.

We've recently attended a few show-jumping events at Richmond Equestrian Centre and as a parent of a rider I can highly recommend the facility. From the friendly, welcoming atmosphere to the quality of course,… everything is to be liked. Fingers crossed I'll also get to compete there myself this coming year as my wee horse makes a comeback.

Hired the Yorkshire arena for my youngster today, fantastic course. Wonderful surface and reasonably priced! Asked a lovely gentleman the size of some fences and he was very willing to show me the colour code etc - very helpful. Would highly recommend and will be returning! 🙂 x

Lovely ran show yesterday. think the actual owners of the place are lucky to have people hiring the venue with how strict they actually are not allowing to hang a haynet outside of a trailer so you can tie a pony up happy whilst you let it cool down before loading is a joke.

Having just been to REC for the first time since the new owners bought it - what a difference!!!
New surfaces, tidier car park, everywhere so neat & professional & the cross country fields look amazing. The paddocks are in unbelievable condition after all the awful weather we've had - the place is obviously well managed & you get a fantastic first impression. The facilities were great at the Arenas & we managed to have a tour of the livery yards by the owner. Having stayed on the yard once as an overnight stay, I cannot believe the work that has gone in to tidying everything up & making it so

A very clean and well run event when i attended today. Met by polite friendly staff. A spotless clean kitchen serving a good choice of warm food teas and coffee.
It would have been 5stars if the final right turn in the village had a direction sign on. Such a pity as from the A1 the signage was brilliant.
