About the yard
South Cambridgeshire Equestrian Centre is a riding school with a livery yard, set on 260 acres of farmland near Foxton. Livery horses have 60 acres of grazing, and the yard has staff on site round the clock and a secure, alarmed tack room.
Livery comes in three kinds: a part package with a seven-day muck out, feed and hay; a full package that adds four exercise sessions a week; and working livery, which is cheaper in return for the horse being used in the riding school at times. Every package includes a one-hour group lesson a week.
