Lesson blocks
Six weeks at a time,
Six weeks at a time,
never one-off
Blocks run in six-week terms so a coach can plan properly. Miss a week and we carry it forward — nobody loses a lesson to a head cold.
Jumping ladder
Four graded groups, from cross-poles to a metre five. You move up when the canter is ready, not when the calendar says so.

Ridgeway hacks
Two hours out over the ridge, one coach to four riders. Assessed on arrival, and yes, there are two river crossings.

Questions we answer
Questions we answer
every week
If yours is not here, call the yard office. Somebody who rides will pick up.
With a private assessment lesson. Forty-five minutes on the lunge, no reins for the first part, and a coach who tells you honestly which group to join. Most adults are in a group within three sessions.
Long trousers without an inside seam, a boot with a small heel, and a top you can move in. We loan hats to current safety standard and boots up to a size twelve at no charge.
Fourteen stone, or ninety kilograms, on the school horses. It is a limit set by the horses, not by us, and we would rather say it plainly than at the mounting block.
Yes — full, part and grass livery are all available, subject to a box coming free. Vaccination records and a current passport are checked before arrival.
Both arenas are floodlit and one is under cover, so lessons run in almost everything. Hacks are called off for high wind or ice, and the block simply carries forward.
Four-day courses every school holiday, capped at eight riders with two coaches and a stable-management hour each morning. They open to Saddle Club members first.
In their words
I started at forty-six having never sat on a horse. Nobody made me feel late to it.
My daughter came for six weeks and stayed four years. She can tack up faster than I can find my keys.
They matched me to a horse who forgives a bad hand, and then taught me not to need forgiving.
The hacking is the reason I moved my mare here. Three hours out and you never cross a main road.
Nobody rushed me into a canter. I asked for it myself, in week nine, and by then I was ready.
Coaches who ride the school horses themselves give completely different advice. You can hear it.
