β€œSuch a lovely place with such a good vibe! 🐴❀️ The horses are kind, calm, well-trained, and clearly very well looked after. I’ve been taking private lessons once a week, although honestly, I wish I could come more often! At the moment, I mostly ride Whispy The trainers, Helen and Eliza, are also absolutely lovely! They’re friendly, patient, and make the lessons really enjoyable Overall, I’m really enjoying my lessons and the whole atmosphere here. I definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves horses or wants to learn to ride! πŸ΄βœ¨β€
