    Well schooled horses and super friendly staff.

    Very impressed. After my first experience, dragging my "poor" partner (inexperienced rider) along, hacking out with Sarah, I had to come back. I thoroughly enjoyed the well gauged and varied trek through country roads, woodlands and hills. This time I was back with further two...More

    Friendy equestrian yard in beautiful countryside.

    My horse was stabled here for two nights as we were competing at the venue. Caroline, the owner was most helpful and friendly. We have ridden from here, several years ago on her well behaved and well cared for ponies.

    Hi Felicia, thank you for the feedback and it was a pleasure to house your horse when you were here! Could you let me know what we could have done to turn this into a 5* rating?
