We are a friendly riding centre for children, adults and families. Our community is open to all – we welcome beginners, who would just like to try things out, but also have fully qualified staff who can push you that little bit further, if you are up for a challenge.
We are open on Mondays by arrangement, Tuesday to Friday from 9am to 7pm and Saturday and Sunday from 9am to 6pm. Click any of the following services to find out more.
These are one to one lessons for ages 4 years+. You will be allocated a suitable horse or pony that suits your size and age. Our friendly team will guide you through your lessons, helping you to develop your riding abilities from week to week.
A perfect way to introduce three year olds to riding in a secure and friendly setting. Fifteen minute rides on one of our smallest ponies gets each child used to being in the saddle and holding the reins which stands our tiniest jockeys in good stead for developing their riding skills once they have reached their 4th birthday and can start having “proper” lessons.
