Over the years I have experienced lots of riding stables and livery yards. I can only speak of Grove house from a riding stables perspective and say that this is probably the best establishment I have ever visited. My daughter rides here fairly regularly and she is nurtured by the staff who seem to be very perceptive of her lack of confidence. Lessons are quite small and this allows the instructor to tailor the learning, ensuring that my daughter is able to work through her fears with gentle encouragement.
The horses and ponies clearly love their work and are so well cared for. I have witnessed

I had a private lesson recently as a surprise birthday gift, having not been riding since before Covid I couldn't have asked for a better stables to have gone to for my first lesson back. Andrew was so enthusiastic about supporting me back in the saddle, he had a lot of knowledge and passion and I felt very welcome as a visitor! A huge thank you and I'll certainly be back horse riding now!

Ponies 'n' Pals brought Biscuit the pony to our garden to celebrate the birthdays of our daughters Summer (10 years) and Skye (3 years). They both love ponies and had a wonderful time with friends and family grooming, dressing up and playing games. We were amazed at how well Jed and Ellen were able to engage all the children ranging from 3-10 years. Both girls agree that it was the 'best party ever' and Skye wants to know when Biscuit can come to play again! Highly recommended!

I have ridden at Grovehouse for three years, in my early 40s I decided to start riding as a complete beginner- balance and coordination are not natural skills- Andrew and the team at Grovehouse have been amazing, their patience and dedication have been a great help. Not forgetting the horses who are all amazing too. Highly recommended 😊, I always look forward to my riding lessons.

Ridden here for 8yrs and I love the team. It is a beautiful yard with amazing friendly staff and lovely horses who are passionate with what they do. The staff have looked after me well and helped me to regain my confidence. They also offer a wide range of learning, competitions and experiences for everyone :)

I booked a 1-week riding experience package at Grove House Stables and soon ended up extending it for 2 more weeks and believe me, I could have gone on if I had no life to go back to in London!
I absolutely enjoyed my lessons with all my fantastic instructors (Jodi, Lisa, Sam, Kerri and Eve) and GHS’s great ponies. I received a range of riding and horse care lessons and worked towards some of the BHS Bronze level certificates during this time.
A special thank you to Andrew Stennett who kindly put this bespoke riding experience together for me and his lovely mom and their gorgeous dog who made

Grove house is just fab! I recently moved my horse here. Horse are extremely well looked after, I honestly haven’t seen my horse looking so well and settled. The team are very experienced and have helped me so much! The lessons here are just brilliant, the team give you such a positive fun vibe your confidence and skills go up with each… lesson, never leaving with you with that “stuck” feeling! There’s so much I can do here with lesson competitions and training By far the best place I have been to as a livery client and for lesson ..... winning combo!!

Fantastic first mum & daughter ride after lockdown. We were so impressed with the slickness of the new procedures and felt well looked after by Andrew and Eve. Most definitely recommend Grove House. If you’re considering getting back in the saddle - just do it and help support this wonderful business!!

I have been riding for years and owned my own horses but never had consistent lessons as an adult. Andrew is a brilliant instructor, he always makes me feel at ease and gives me confidence in my riding. Andrew never assumes I should know something and explains without making me feel silly for not knowing. I can honestly say I have learnt more in just 4 lessons than I ever have. I can highly recommend. Thank you Grove House. 😊💚

My daughter has been having horse riding lessons at Grove House Stables for over a year. The owner and staff are friendly and helpful and put the kids at ease. The lessons are excellent and the prices competitive. We haven't tried any other stables as we are very happy with Grove House, so can't compare. My daughter really enjoys her lessons and looks forward to it every week. Parking is good and there is a cafe on site too which we've used for drinks and snacks.

Great place. Indoor and outdoor horse arenas, and stabling, indoor and outdoor dog agility arenas. There is a lovely tea-room,cafe. An antiquities shop, and a cycle store. There are toilet facilities,these are accessed from outside and are quite basic but functional. There is some off road parking but not a great deal. There tends to be overspill onto the road. Thisisn'taproblemand shows that they are popular than they expected.

Our daughter has been having lessons for several weeks now, her riding is improving all the time, she
absolutely loves her lessons, instructor Ellen, and the ponies especially Holly. She had her birthday party
last weekend with 5 friends, at Grove house, (a pony party) which was brilliant. Everyone enjoyed it, her friends said it was the best party ever, although they hadn't ridden before, their experience was great. The staff were all lovely with Alicia and her friends, making them all very happy on her birthday...a big thank you to everyone involved...finishing off with a party tea in the Dovecote
