Good stables ! My daughter who is 9 loved it here . Sadly we all contracted Covid and we had to isolate! So my daughter lost her place and put on a waiting list ! I didn’t hear from them for weeks and then they text me to say we have one off space this Saturday! She loved it ! But was so upset that she couldn’t ride every weekend! So know we have had to go to another stables ! Which isn’t so busy and where she gets to do what she loves and ride every week !!!

I recently attended an adult taster session and then started beginners classes which I go to every week. I can’t say enough good things about these stables. The booking system is highly efficient, the staff very friendly and approachable. Most importantly, I’ve felt safe at all times. This is a properly run business with people’s safety and enjoyment at the heart of everything they do. I can highly recommend. 5 stars from me.

We've been riding here for around 6 months now, and I love it. We are given horses that gently stretch our ability and our lovely instructor Claire is knowledgeable, positive and encouraging. The range of horses available is amazing, they are well behaved and very responsive. The atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming. I thoroughly enjoy riding here, and would give it more stars if I could! Highly recommend, wherever you are on your riding journey.

As an AI and after spending some time away from horses following having children I was nervous about returning to riding after around 3 years. I had a lesson today and was greeted by a friendly team, was allocated a lovely forward going but safe horse called Lady, my instructor was professional and made me feel at ease and I can't wait to return next week, thanks to everyone

Excellent yard! I’ve been riding here for 3.5 years. Came as a return rider who hadn’t ridden for a number of years and I’ve grown not only in confidence as a rider, but also in skill too!
Kim has been my instructor for most of the time I have been here and has been fantastic every step of the way, allowing me to move up the levels to her top class!
Horses are brilliant, all looked after to very high standards, and there’s a vast arrange so something to suit everyone’s needs!
Everyone is friendly and helpful and all work to encourage each other to get the best results!

We have just returned from our first lesson and we were delighted to be welcomed by such a friendly team. The lovely lady on reception Debbie, instructors Kim and Lyndsey all exceeded our expectations and couldn't have been more customer focused. The organisation that we experienced in three different lessons was spot on. The horses look very well cared for and were a pleasure to ride. A lovely warm viewing area to watch the arena was great too!

We can't praise this outfit enough! John is a gentleman, he has spent much of his personal time advising us on what's best for our horse! He's always there when we need him! Nothing is ever too much! We keep our horse at johns too, he's great with our daughters and treats them like his own! It's like a family down at the stables! He doesn't stand any messing! And has his own way! This works for us! Safety is key to John, look no further! It's the perfect place to keep your horse, where you will make lots of new friends too! ❤️ Ashley x
