Dulwich Riding School
Dulwich Common, London SE21 7EX, UK – 020 8693 2944
Very nice riding stables, local before the usual affairs in the country. It's really nice to have a spot like this in such an urban area. However as you might expect the area is quite small and limited in what one can do. I have to say my daughter did enjoy her visit in the past. They sell eggs too if you want to get away from the supermarket ones!!
The staff are very knowledgeable, all round great teachers and you can tell that they love their horses. Going in I was a complete beginner but with the support of the staff I was confident enough to trot without a leader. Would definitely recommend for riders of any level.

Anerley Town Hall & Business Centre
Anerley Road, London SE20 8BD, UK – 020 8676 5666
It is a beautiful and well-maintained historic building. The staff are friendly and helpful. I am running my morning yoga class there on every Wednesday. The main hall with the big window, high-ceiling and wooden floor is perfect environment for the mindfulness movement practice.
Council services and library are no longer at this building. Anerley Town Hall is located opposite Anerley National Rail station with links to London and Croydon and has a good bus service from Bromley, Croydon, Norwood and Crystal Palace. It is a locally listed Victorian building with character and charm. Its location and facilities make it an ideal venue for wedding receptions, parties, dances, clubs, meetings and conferences.
