Location

We are very fortunate to use facilities at Trefeinon Farm, Llangorse. LD3 0PS by kind permission of the Sheppherd family. Located just off the main B4560 road between Talgarth & Llangorse.

 

Facilities

At Trefeinon rallies take place in either the arena or in fields depending upon the weather and activities taking place. There are show jumps and a cross country course available for our use. We also have facilities for mounted games, dressage and eventing.

Rallies

A rally is much like a riding lesson with a qualified instructor. We meet regularly through the summer on Friday evenings and through the winter on Saturdays. Riders are put into ability groups of approximately 4/5 with lessons usually lasting an hour. Rallies are either one discipline e.g. show jumping or they maybe a mixture to make it fun with some mounted games, especially for younger children.

Summer Camp

During the summer holidays we host a three day summer camp each year which takes place at our base, Trefeinon. The benefit of being a small Branch means that all of our Members attend the same Camp which really establishes the feeling of being a large family.

Our camp is open to all ages and abilities, from lead-rein onwards.

It is a fun packed 3 days with a range of disciplines, Show Jumping, Cross Country, Mounted Games, Flatwork; even the opportunity to complete a PC proficiency test and Badge. At the end of the 3 days we have a celebration of achievements and BBQ, with rosettes, trophies and badges awarded as recognition of the members achievements.

Social Occasions

Away from the arena there are plenty of opportunities to meet new friends and socialise. At Brecon & Talybont we have an annual coach trip to Badminton horse trials, this is always thoroughly enjoyed by all whether sun or rain!! We have also been to Hereford Races, stewarded at the Royal Welsh Show and lots more equestrian related excursions.
