There is also a washdown area, horse walker, a woodchip turnout area, plus a 20 × 40m sand school and riders are treated to a grass gallop to exercise their horses away from the sand school.

Rhos Fawr is well placed for keen riders with affiliated and unaffiliated competitions and clinics run locally at Radfords and others centres within reach – including Bow House, Kensall Hall, Tushingham Arena and Berriewood.
