Foxhills Riding Centre is one of the West Midlands' most well-equipped equestrian facilities, spread across 86 acres of farmland at Barr Beacon on the northern edge of Birmingham. The centre holds dual BHS and ABRS approval and operates a 32-stable yard with an indoor school, outdoor arenas and a dedicated cross-country course. Tuition covers all levels from complete beginner to competitive preparation, and the cross-country course is used for schooling and as part of the centre's competitive events calendar. The elevated Barr Beacon setting provides excellent off-road hacking with panoramic views across the surrounding West Midlands countryside.

What to wear
Standard guidance for equestrian yards in the UK. Check with your yard if you're unsure.
A correctly fitted hat to current safety standards (PAS 015 or VG1). Bicycle helmets are not permitted. Hats are available to hire, usually reserved for first-time riders.
Boots with a small heel, riding boots, walking boots or wellies all work. Trainers and flat-soled shoes are not permitted for safety reasons.
Close-fitting, weather-appropriate clothes. Shoulders and legs must be covered, no vest tops or shorts. Jackets and coats should be fastened securely. Waterproofs are recommended for outdoor lessons.
Long hair should be tied back in a ponytail before putting on your helmet. All jewellery must be removed before riding.
Clients arriving in unsuitable clothing or footwear may not be permitted to ride, for their own safety. If in doubt, contact the yard before your visit.
