Our Horses

"No hour of life is lost that is spent in the saddle" Winston Churchill

Our amazing horses are more than just companions; they are dedicated instructors on a mission to guide riders of all levels to equestrian excellence. Our exceptional school horses are the heart of our program. Each one possesses a special blend of patience, skill, and charisma, making them perfect mentors for riders on their journey to becoming confident riders.

Beyond the arena, our school horses also accompany riders to competitions, turning each event into a collaborative showcase of skill and partnership. They not only teach the technical aspects of riding but also instill the values of discipline, empathy, and teamwork.

Billy the loveable lab is the real boss around the stables.

Billy keeps a close eye on everything that happens around the stables, and out at competitions or clinics and is the #1 supporter.

Golden Retriever's

Sherlock and Basil

Sherlock and Basil the Goldy members of the team.

Sherlock is always busy 'working' around the yard, he takes his job as mouse hunter very seriously!!

Sherlocks new little brother joined the team,

Basil. He is more of a puppy of leisure, any mud or poop pile he can find to roll in, or a nice shady spot to sleep is his priority.

The 2 boys love following the stable boss Billy around and supporting the team whenever they can.
