Everyone enjoyed another lovely Pony 🐴 morning, complete with a picnic 🧺 in the woods 🌳 and some blackberry picking. 🍇😊

Book your spot for next week now so you don't miss out before the summer holidays wrap up!

Midi Hack £50 🐴
Enjoy up to two hours in the saddle, exploring the lovely countryside both on and off the road. 🌿

This ride is normally a walk, trot and canter hack, but due to the current hard ground conditions, we will be walking and trotting only for the time being.

Ability: Novice riders and upwards.
Please book your place through our online booking system. We look forward to seeing you in the saddle! 🐎

We are aware that the news has already been posted on social media, but we have spent the last few days processing this extremely sad news, it has come as a shock to us all.

For those of you that aren’t aware we are deeply saddened to announce that Verity passed away on Friday 💔😢

She meant so much to so many.
Her dedication to horses and the riding school has given so many people such happy memories that will be cherished forever.

A truly unique lady who will be really missed and always remembered.

Details of funeral arrangements will be released once finalised

A lovely pony morning had by all today!
It was a very hot one but we managed to keep cool with a shady hack to the woods, followed by chalking and bathing the ponies ❤️🐴

Well, where do we even start with today?!

On what was already one of our busiest pony mornings, our lovely Willow decided to get herself stuck in the pond! Safe to say, we were all a little bit shocked. 😳

It’s moments like this that really make you stop, reflect and feel incredibly grateful for the amazing people you have around you. Our staff and liveries instantly sprang into action and were absolutely incredible. We genuinely couldn’t do what we do without you guys, but today you went above and beyond. You kept your cool, helped in every way possible and, most importantly, kept the yard running while we dealt with the situation. We really can’t thank you enough. ❤️

To all of our lovely clients, we’re so sorry if things were a little hectic at the start of your pony day today! I appreciate that you probably don’t expect to arrive and see a horse, staff members and the vet absolutely covered in mud! 😂 Thank you so much for your patience, understanding and for bearing with us while we dealt with everything.

And last but certainly not least, a HUGE thank you to our amazing vets at Linkswood Equine Vets. You guys always have our backs and somehow manage to help us out of the stickiest situations… no pun intended! 😂

Ben, although I really don’t want to add to your ego, I feel like I have no choice this time…

You were a real-life superhero today. You jumped straight in, putting Willow’s welfare first without a second thought. You remained calm, knew exactly what needed to be done and handled an incredibly stressful situation brilliantly. Without you, I’m honestly not sure we would have had the outcome we did.

We will be forever grateful to you. ❤️

Thankfully, Willow is now doing well and has had her hundredth bath of the day thanks to her lovely owner, Sally, who has watched her like a hawk throughout the whole ordeal. 😂❤️

The pond has now been fenced off and has enough electric running through it to make sure no horse goes anywhere near it again!

After a day like today, we’re definitely praying for some much less dramatic days ahead! 🙏🏼😂

Thank you again to everyone who helped, stayed calm, mucked in and supported us today. We are incredibly lucky to have such an amazing team around us. ❤️

Thank you everyone who has contacted we will try our best to get back to you. It’s lovely to see how many horsey lovers are out there
