The Shed
For overnight visitors there are tent campsites available, or you may be inclined to camp in your float. The Shed is fully equipped with shower, toilet, fridge, microwave, dryer and all kitchen and dining utensils - we also now have available a small television and VCR - for when you aren't playing with your pony you can kick back and watch a movie (so don't forget to bring one or we do have some available for hire $1/night). These facilities are shared by all visitors. The "donkey" wood fire hot water system, contributes to the country atmosphere.
For the non-campers there are country motels in Kilcoy and Woodford, an approximate traveling time of 15 minutes from the Training Centre. Mobile phone service is not strong but it also depends on who you are with eg. Telstra, Optus etc.
Visitors Horse Yards
The horse yards for the visitors are approx 5mtr square they have timber posts with a 2inch steel pipe top rail plus 3 strands of polypipe with an electric offset and a wire gate (power is supplied for the yards). If you are unsure about your horse in tape yards please contact us to make other arrangements. The water tank is about 10 metres from the yards. If you are concerned your horse won't drink tank water please bring molasses to add to the drinking water.
