Whether you’re a total beginner, returning after time away, or working towards specific goals — we offer a calm, supportive space for adults aged 18+ to build confidence, skills, and enjoyment with horses.
Our experienced staff and kind horses help create a relaxed and welcoming environment for every rider.
All new adult riders must complete an Assessment and Induction before joining a group or booking a hack.
These sessions ensure you’re paired with the right horse and guided toward the most suitable sessions for your needs.
🧭 Assessment Lesson (for returning or experienced riders)
We’ll check your confidence, balance, control, and understanding to:
Match you with an appropriate horse
Place you in a suitable group or recommend private options
Approve you for hacking if appropriate
🪜 Induction Session (for beginners or nervous riders)
We’ll introduce you to the basics of handling and riding in a calm, unpressured setting.
You’ll learn:
How to mount and dismount
Basic position and balance
Starting, stopping, and steering at walk (and trot if ready)
Following your session, your instructor will work with you to create a tailored riding plan that suits your confidence, availability, and personal goals.
👉 Book your assessment or induction
Our private sessions are available in 30- or 45-minute formats and are ideal for:
Riders who prefer one-to-one support
Adults returning after a long break
Beginners building confidence gradually
Riders working on specific skills like flatwork, polework, groundwork, or theory
👉 Explore our private lesson types
After your assessment and induction, you may be invited to join a 1-hour adult group session. These are friendly, social, and focused on steady skill development.
In these sessions, you’ll work on:
Riding position and rhythm
Transitions and steering accuracy
School figures and exercises
Polework (where appropriate)
📌 All new adult riders must complete an assessment and induction before joining a group.
Hacking is a rewarding part of our riding journey — but it’s reserved for experienced, regular riders who have built a relationship with our horses through arena-based lessons and completed a hack assessment.
Many of our horses are ex-competition, ex-racing, or former Pony Club mounts. They are forward-going, responsive, and not “nose-to-tail” trekking horses. For this reason, we do not offer hacking to holidaymakers or riders we don’t know.
Benefits of hacking:
Builds rider confidence in open spaces
Encourages balance and adaptability
Offers a relaxed, scenic riding experience
📌 All riders must complete a hack assessment and be riding regularly with us before hacking can be offered.
We also offer a variety of unmounted options to support your progress:
Rider Alignment Sessions – Improve posture, balance, and body awareness through simulated riding
Theory Lessons – Learn about aids, paces, tack, school figures, and horse behaviour without pressure
Horse Care Sessions – Develop confidence and skill around grooming, tacking up, feeding, and more
These sessions are great for those who want to deepen their understanding or who benefit from off-horse learning.
Adult sessions are available during the day, in the evening, and at weekends — perfect for parents, professionals, shift workers, and retirees.
