Florence test trot (3).JPG

Florence

Kia 

Kia is  an KWPN (Warmblood) who has had a previous career show jumping. She is a big moving athletic horse, with an established flying change, and is suitable for the more experienced rider. Kia loves to be the centre of attention. 

Quabri.jpg

Quabri

Quabri is our wonderful, medium level school master. He is a handsome horse with a genuine character. Quabri is not only a touch button ride, he is also very generous in his work. Although he really enjoys his work in the school, you will also see Quabri out doing lots of hacking as he is a saint to hack and really loves to go out on adventure

Panda

Despite being the resident escape artist, he is still the staff favourite. Panda is quiet enough to teach beginners, but is forward enough for the more experienced child. He has a real flair for his flatwork.

Milo

Milo is one of the kindest ponies you could meet, and truly one of the best ponies for a child to learn with. Milo is a true allrounder and loves to jump and hack, as well as competing in our regular dressage competitions, where his consistent way of going is a firm favourite with the judges.

Secret is an expert at teaching children to ride. She is truly one in a million. Not only is Secret fabulous with the beginner children, she loves to jump and really lights up when popping a fence.
