Robyn Boyle combined indoor dressage arena and stable complex
Project overview
Robyn owns a picturesque property in Scone, NSW and is a dedicated dressage rider and trainer. Teaching in an open arena was negatively affecting her business as she had to cancel lessons whenever weather was unfavourable. Calculating a significant loss of approximately 30% of her average income due to these cancellations, Robyn recognised the need for her to invest in an indoor arena.
She approached Central Steel Build with a unique vision for a combined indoor dressage arena and stable complex, emphasising a shallow roof gradient to harmonise with existing property infrastructure and to be designed around horse and rider safety.

Project success and impact:
We maintained close collaboration with Robyn throughout the design phase to ensure that the equestrian complex would fully address her business and safety requirements. The incorporation of a curved roofline was our solution to achieving an unobtrusive roof design. Additionally, we coordinated with Killahy Equine, the stable fit-out provider, to ensure seamless integration of our building with the fit-out, and designed the stables with perforated corrugated walls to increase ventilation.
“I cannot heap enough praise on Central Steel Build for the quality of our arena and stable complex construction. No big project is without a few hiccups, these were ironed out to our complete satisfaction in a timely manner. Before having the facility I was losing approximately 30% of my average income from cancelling lessons due to inclement weather. Now I can train and teach all year round no matter what is going on outside.”
