At Dean Valley, they take pride in maintaining high standards. They cultivate their own grassland to ensure top-quality fodder such as hay and haylage for your horses. However, it's important to note that Dean Valley is not a riding school, so they don't provide horses for lessons. But don't worry, they do offer excellent schooling and tuition opportunities if you have your own horse. Just make sure your horse has an up-to-date annual Equine Influenza vaccination, as random passport checks may be conducted.
