Good afternoon all!

It was great to welcome some of you back over the weekend and half term, we think the ponies were happy to get back to work, as well.
We're continuing with a restricted opening for a little while longer, but fingers crossed we'll be seeing more of you soon! 🤞🏻
And when you pop up next you might notice that our shop has had a smart new paint job 👀 Be sure to pop in and take a look at what we have in stock

And we'd like to take this opportunity to give a MASSIVE shout out to one of our regular riders, Lily, who very generously raised some funds to put towards the of care of our ponies. How wonderful of her 🤩 we are very grateful and both we and the ponies are most certainly feeling the love 🐴🥰 thank you, Lily!

Good afternoon everyone,

After taking advice from the vet, we are going to get the ponies back into work this weekend ready to welcome you back for half term.
The ponies have enjoyed a few weeks off and are ready to get back into their lessons and are excited to see their riders again.

Once we are open we will have stringent biosecurity measures on the yard that must be followed.
But, don't worry, it's not as scary as it sounds and it will be explained to all customers

Give us a call over the weekend to confirm or make a booking for next week, but please be aware that this will be a restricted opening which unfortunately means no hacks and no outside horses.

Thank you all for your patience and support, we look forward to welcoming you back 🐎

Hello all, just a quick update as we're sure everyone is curious about the situation.

Firstly, the poorly pony is doing well and we've been monitoring all other ponies and so far they seem fine, though we will continue checking for symptoms throughout the week.

We've been working with the vet, and following their advice we have decided to remain closed for this coming weekend.
We understand some of you may be disappointed to be missing another week of riding, but it is important to keep any infection contained to prevent risk to horses beyond our yard.

We're sure the ponies missing you as much as you're missing them, but they do seem very happy to be having a nice break to eat lots of tasty grass (though perhaps a little confused with this change of routine.)

Thank you all for you patience and understanding at this time

⚠️ Important post ⚠️

Unfortunately, one of our ponies has tested positive for the Strangles Virus. This pony has been isolated and at the moment all other ponies are fine and are being monitored.

This is of course a very serious virius and we have gone into lockdown to keep the infection contained and are working with the vet to put a plan into action going forward.

This does mean that all lesson and rides are cancelled for this weekend.

Please bare with us as and thank you for your understanding
