About us

Bigland Hall Equestrian is a brand new business to the South Lakes area. Formerly operating as Lakeland Riding Centre, Flookburgh, Sheila and Mike Myers have now branched out with this new and exciting business venture. Luckily, due to unexpected redevelopment of their previous premises at Lakeland Caravan Park they now have the opportunity to expand their vast knowledge and experience into a complete equine provision for the Lake District and surrounding areas.
