Crabbick Farm

29/10/2026

We are exceptionally proud of Sophie and all that she has achieved throughout her apprenticeship with us through Haddon Training.

It has been a pleasure to support Sophie on her journey, and we are so proud of not only her progress but also the dedication and commitment she has shown along the way.

We are equally proud of all the apprentices who have trained with us over the years! Watching them develop their skills, grow in confidence and progress within the equestrian industry was one of the most rewarding parts of what we did.

A huge thank you to Haddon Training for sharing Sophie’s story and helping to celebrate her achievements.

Please take a moment to read Sophie’s story below! 👇

Meet Sophie, who is completing her Level 3 Senior Equine Groom apprenticeship at Crabbick Farm with Haddon Training. 👋

💬 “My proudest achievement is the growth of my confidence with taking charge of the yard. When I began, I had never been left in charge of a yard that I have worked on before.”

Full name
Address
Email address
Telephone number
Your chosen block (e.g. Indoor School – 5 Hours)

We’ll then invoice you for your chosen block. Once payment has been received, we’ll issue you with a voucher to use when making your bookings.

📅 IMPORTANT INFORMATION

• All vouchers are valid for 6 months from the date of issue.
• Bookings must be made through My Riding Life in the usual way.
• Our usual booking terms and conditions apply to all sessions.
• Blocks can be used flexibly across multiple bookings, subject to availability.

If you regularly hire our schools, a block booking is a great way to save money while planning your riding time in advance!

We look forward to welcoming you and your horses! 🐎

After much consideration, we would like to let everyone know that we have made the very difficult decision to close the livery aspect of our business.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our wonderful liveries and staff, past and present, for their support over the years. It has been a privilege to care for so many lovely horses and to be part of your journeys. We are incredibly grateful for the friendships and memories we’ve made along the way.

Although the livery side of our business has come to an end, we are pleased to confirm that arena hire will continue as normal.

Our arena remains available to hire for schooling, flatwork, jumping and clinics, and we look forward to continuing to welcome both familiar and new faces.

Thank you again to everyone who has supported us over the years. We truly appreciate it and hope to see many of you at the arena in the future.

Bookings will continue to be taken through MyRidingLife at the following link
