Ryders Farm is a family run business, established 25 years ago by Sarah Fitton, a BHS Stage 5 performance coach in Complete Horsemanship. We are a BHS approved Riding School and Livery Yard, an Official Pony Club Centre and approved by the Local Authority. We specialise in riding lessons for all ages and abilities, encouraging people to enjoy the sport of riding and love horses as we do. We are al

ways happy to see new faces (and old friends) and you are welcome to visit our yard, but please, no dogs. We know sometimes the urge to see, touch, talk to and yes, even smell a pony, is overwhelming so even if you’re not riding feel free to visit us, feed the ducks, chat to others on the yard, have a coffee and enjoy yourself. Our instructors, yard staff, reception and admin are all dedicated to ensure that your experience at Ryders Farm Equestrian Centre – whether owner, visitor, student, parent, rider , horse or pony - is one which you enjoy and treasure.

We’d love for you all to meet Lexi 🐴🤎

Although she’s been with us for a few months now, we thought it was about time she got a proper introduction!

Lexi joined us as a young project pony and we've recently started the process of backing her after she’s enjoyed time out in the field over winter. She is still very much at the beginning of her education, so we'll be taking things slowly and giving her plenty of time to learn, grow and gain confidence.

She won't be joining the riding school for at least another year, but in the meantime she's giving the team something to learn from and enjoy bringing on. We're looking forward to sharing her progress, little wins and adventures along the way.

You can watch Lexi's full introduction reel now on our Instagram and TikTok to see some videos of how she is getting on so far ✨

It’s officially that time of year where lessons start heading out into the field 🐴🤩

Before you head out, make sure you’ve got the right safety equipment on. It’s really important for keeping you safe and secure whilst riding in open spaces🙌

If you’re not sure what you need or where to get it from, feel free to ask a member of staff. We’re always happy to help and can point you in the right direction for our recommended brands and shops!😁

Happy riding! 🐎
