Meet the team
Every one has a job they love and a rider they suit. We pick the horse; you just turn up.
Relaxed horses make confident riders
Our classes take place either in our outdoor school or one of our eight fields, most of which are also used to turn out our horses on their days off or overnight. This means our horses and ponies are working from home, and are therefore very relaxed in these large open spaces.
