Local Children - Children's Information for Stockbridge

Stockbridge Riding is of a very high standard. My children have been riding there for two years and they love it! The owners and staff are friendly and supportive and the horses are well looked after; each of them have their own character and personality. Our instructor, Lydia has an impressive understanding of the psychology of horses and the development of the relationship between horse and rider. She has a fabulous energy which she transmits to the rider in her lessons. There is also plenty of amazing countryside to ride out in and explore.

My daughter who is now 7 years old has been riding at Brocks Farm since September 2016. The standards of teaching are very high (the school and instructors are BHS approved) and the ponies are lovely, and well cared for. My daughter has really progressed, and is now enjoying cantering and beginning to jump. The school caters for all abilities, from total beginners (children or adults) to experienced riders who can go hacking, or have private or group lessons (flatwork or jumping). The school also holds weekly or monthly jump clinics, and dressage days, as well as holding an annual Open Day where all the riders in the various groups perform in a show for friends and family etc. I have recently joined one of Brocks Farm's adults' classes, and the horses for the more experienced riders are fabulous (horses trained to high levels of dressage or jumping etc). The teachers have competed at national level and have years of experience, and can really help improve your riding. Brocks Farm is a really great school with BHS approved instructors, and a superb selection of ponies and horses.
