We’ve lots of fun planned at this stables this summer with plenty of activities for children who are new to horse riding, like Tots’ Pony Hour, Led Hacks and Pony Hour, as well as Pony & Activities Camp which is open to all children aged 5 – 12 years. For our current, graded riders we have 2 summer camps (now fully booked), hacking, show jumping and Prix Caprilli sessions and lots more!
Please note when booking that we do have a 12-stone weight limit for horse riding. When booking, if a session shows as “Fully Booked” please join the waiting list for that activity as we may add additional sessions to meet demand and will contact you if we do.
