Terms & Conditions

• We are running our facility hire with any necessary Covid-19 and general rules and terms and conditions in place. PLEASE READ THESE IN FULL BEFORE BOOKING. By booking arena/facility hire at Nottingham Trent University, you are stating that you and any other attendees agree to abide by and comply with these rules, terms and conditions below which MUST BE adhered to at all times.
• Directions to Brackenhurst - Please enter the campus via the main ‘Brackenhurst Campus’ entrance from the A612 Nottingham-Southwell Road NOT the Deliveries Only entrance or other smaller lanes that the SAT NAV may direct you via. From this main entrance, follow the slightly windy road all the way down to a T-junction (you will see a driveway with a garage with a black door in front of you). TURN RIGHT here then keep following the road all the way down to the equestrian centre. You will go round a really sharp left hand bend and then you will see a cantilever gate and the outdoor school in front of you and a horsebox parking area. If this area is full, please follow the road round to the right and park in the next horsebox park on your left.
• Entry to the centre and Indoor School – there is a cantilever gate installed on the approach to the equestrian centre on the bend just before the lower Equine car park. A loop system senses vehicles and automatically opens the gate (slides sideways) during 'working' hours of 8am to 8.30pm each day and then the gate then closes behind you. If for any reason the gate does not open for you, please call the security officers at Brackenhurst on 07786 112005. Access to the indoor school for horses will be via the footpath at the side of the indoor school accessed at the top of the middle school grass paddock at the centre. Access for pedestrians via the above or the white pedestrian door from the top car park next to Harlow 1 yard.
• Indoor School Lights – If the indoor school lights are not already on, the switches to turn them on are on the top of the white plastic kicking boards in the corner of the pedestrian area of the indoor school under the metal cabinet on your immediate right as you walk into the indoor school via the white pedestrian door from the car park. Please call the security officers at Brackenhurst on 07786 112005 if you require help finding the switch.
