The table below shows the regular sessions as at beginning of September 2010. Apart from the Sunday morning children's sessions all lessons must be booked in advance. There are some spaces available on some of these sessions so please ask if you wish to join any of them. New group lessons will be started as demand warrants so please call if you would like to ride regularly at any other times or to find out what is currently available.

Other lessons can be booked on an ad hoc basis by arrangement by phone. Private and Semi private lessons or hacks can be booked at your convenience subject to an Instructor being available. However please note that at weekends we cannot guarantee private or semi private lessons although we will try.

The adult evening lessons are usually hour sessions starting at 6.30pm or 8pm although this may be subject to change according to demand.

The PRT Sessions are for riders who want to learn both riding and stable management and gain recognized qualifications. The Progressive Rider Tests syllabus is set by the BHS and runs from stage 1 to stage 6 with an adult and a junior version. Certificates are given at each stage following a test by an outside examiner held at the Riding School. The children's tests are in two parts Equitation and Stable Management whereas the adults tests are combined. These tests are particularly suitable for anyone wanting to take their regular riding lessons further.

The Sunday morning sessions for preschool and under 8 year olds are un-booked, parent led half an hour sessions and cost £13 per child. The sessions start at 9.00 am, 9.30 am, 10.00 am and 10.30 am. However as they are un-booked you should be prepared to wait for the next half hour at busy times. Hats can be provided. Children should wear trousers and a boot or shoe with a small heel. The Sunday sessions can be used as a taster session for older children as a one off.

Special activities are run during the School holidays for children and the next holiday's activities are shown on the website separately. Bookings are now being taken for these events.
