Smeltings Farm Riding Centre - Quality Equestrian Training & Education
Riding Lessons 
 
We offer a range of lessons from private to class, catering for each client's individual needs.  Lessons are available during the day, in the evenings and at weekends.  All lessons are taught by suitably trained instructors, with the knowledge and experience to teach to the required level.
 
For children we run Beginners Courses during holiday times.  These courses last for 1 hour and the children are given the opportunity to ride and also to learn about caring for the horses.  To find out when the next Beginners Courses will be please check our Holiday Activities page.
 
We do ask that once a lesson time has been agreed, to maintain this booking you must attend on a regular basis and ensure that you give us at least 24 hours notice if you find it necessary to cancel to avoid a charge being made.
 
We expect to ride in most weather conditions, riding in the indoor school is not guaranteed, therefore suitable clothing should be worn.
 
Generally we do not take out hacks, but can recommend Haddon House Stables, please follow the link on our Links page.
 
Please note our class lessons are limited to a maximum of six clients, which ensures a high level of instruction and attention per client.
