FOR KIDS
As well as offering riding lessons for all levels (beginner to advanced riders), we also offer activities that are suitable for children aged 5-16 years. Hats and boots are available for hire if needed.
For more information about any of our activities for kids call the stables on 0208 546 3616.
REGULAR LESSONS
We offer all children the possibility of start riding lessons at any level and ability. Using our continuous rider assessment method, we will keep track of your child's progress. You can choose between private, semi-private and group lessons.
Regular slots are available for children wanting to ride on a weekly or fortnightly basis.
Own a Pony Day/Half Day
The chance for your child to look after, ride and groom their favourite pony!
These days are always very popular with our younger riders and provide a great introduction to the hard work – and fun – of having a pony of their own.
Own-a-Pony days run Tuesday to Friday – call for more information on 0208 546 3616.
Pony birthday party
We can help plan the perfect party for pony-mad kids. Parties typically run for two hours and include a fun ride out after which the kids are taught how to look after their pony.
Parents are also welcome to bring a cake and presents for the kids to open at the party.
Contact the yard to discuss ideas and costs on 0208 546 3616.
