The two places Eleonor mentioned are Al Shaqab (In Education City) www.alshaqab.com/ and the Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club http://www.qrec.gov.qa/website/Home.aspx?lang=en . They have beautiful facilities and gorgeous Arabian horses, especially Al Shaqab. The both hold large dressage competitions, I believe Chi Al Shaqab competition is quite a big-deal international one (I know very little about riding). There is also another place that offers lessons, leasing, stables, etc -- this is Sheikh Faisal's Farm out in Shehaniya. http://www.fbqmuseum.org/index.php/al-samriya/al-samriya-equestrian-academy.html I have a friend who has kept her horse there for a number of years. It is a little more of a country/ farm like setting than the other two.

do you mean "take lessons" or "give lessons"? I suppose Take lessons. There are two places in Doha, One is in Rayyan and the other is in Education City. Both are said to be very good. As I am not in horse riding I cannot give you further information but you will find them. Qatari are very fond of horses and Qatar hosts competitions at international level, I have heard.

Hi Ladies, We are moving to Doha over the Summer and my girls are very keen riders. We are looking for a stable where they can lease a horse and do lessons. ideally it would be one that holds Show Jumping and Dressage Competitions aswell. Any suggestions would be welcomed. TIA
