Hi i just want to know how much stables were last year at Equifest if anyone can remember..
Also what were the stables like? We are stuck between going for the sponsor and having sponsored stables that are indoor so can keep dry and clean but if the normal stables are nice and dont get boggy and flooded with rain then we won't use the sponsored stables.. Thank you

I used the blue stables not last year but yr before, all week and it was fine just struggled with the water supply if more than one person was doing water buckets! But no other complaints.

All sponsored stables are indoor, red members and blue stables are all outdoor, so the choice is pay the sponsor package and get indoor stables or last year it was £120 for blue stables and £150 for red members, obviously you pay your membership to allow you to book members stabling..
I'll never use blue or red, last year was appalling but that's another story, sorry ill pay for sponsors stables every time!!

I've been in blue the last three years and never had any problems. Sponsors are ok if you can afford them, but personally I don't have that kind of money and am happy enough in blue.

If you're doing lots of classes then it's cheaper to become a member - I think you get £5 off per class if you're a member, and it's about £30 for membership, so you'd have to do at least 5 classes to make it worthwhile. But don't make the same mistake we did the first year - we only pre-entered about 3 classes and thought we would still get a discount making entries on the day but you don't!
Also you can get a red stable, we've been in these for the last 2 years with no problem, but wouldn't want to go in the blue stables after some of the stories I heard last year! We were in red b last year which was a long walk for the worker rings but quite close for the indoor and ring 1&2, and it wasn't as crowded. Red a is best for people doing classes in the smaller rings and the workers I think!

Thank you that's great we are only doing 2-3 classes so not worth being a member then!

We actually had pink stables last year, but had them for the duration instead of just day stables, they were brill, hardstanding, quiet, very close to the indoor, hardstanding parking, they were fantastic!
