Introducing Horse Club


The Bond Between
Horse & Rider

Riding school & livery yard

A yard built
around the horse

Forty horses, eleven instructors and one standard of care.

We teach complete beginners and affiliated competitors on horses that are fit, happy and schooled for the job. Visitors are welcome at the yard on any day we are open.

Qualified instructors

Every lesson is taught by a BHS-accredited coach, and every coach still rides here each week.

A horse for every rider

Forty school horses and ponies, from steady first-lesson cobs to seasoned jumpers.

Two all-weather arenas

An indoor school for winter evenings and a floodlit outdoor arena with a full course of fences.

Full & part livery

Your horse stabled, turned out and exercised by people who notice when something is off.

Three hundred acres to hack

Bridleways, open stubble in the autumn and a long gallop along the top of the valley.

Pony Club & juniors

Saturday rallies, holiday camps and badges for young riders from six years old.

About the club

Riding for every age
and every ability

Founded by a family of riders in 1987, and still run by one.

Horse Club began with six ponies and a borrowed field. Today it is an approved riding school and livery yard on three hundred acres, with an indoor school, a cross-country course and a clubhouse where parents can watch lessons over a coffee. What has not changed is the order of things: the horses come first, the riders a close second, and everyone goes home knowing a little more than when they arrived.

My daughter was nervous of horses a year ago. Now she tacks up her favourite pony on her own and talks about nothing else on the drive home.

I came back to riding at forty-six after twenty years off. Nobody made me feel slow, and my instructor knew exactly when to push.

Clean stables, sensible turnout and a team that rings you before the vet does. I have kept horses at five yards, and this is the one I stayed at.

The jumping clinics are the best value in the county: small groups, proper grids, and real time on the course.

We booked a taster lesson for my birthday and signed up for the Rider plan the same afternoon.

Four days outdoors, a rosette and more confidence than a year of after-school clubs.
