βCan I just say that Eccleston is still the place to go! I competed here through to my BHS training. My son is absolutely obsessed with horses (although heβs a city boy and unfortunately doesnβt get the opportunity in London). I want to give a huge shout out to Des who taught Ollie and although he is a novice, Des oozed control and confidence which rubbed off on him! Amazing and will definitely be returning on our next visit up North. Thanks again Lou, Ollie and his Grandparents!β

βHad a brilliant lesson last week with Richard after many years out the saddle I was very nervous but within no time I was feeling safe and confident! This will definitely be my riding school from now on!! Horses and facilities are well looked after and all staff are friendly... I drive over an hour to get here and its worth every minute! Definitely recommend πβ

βHad a lesson with Lucy on Friday and absolutely loved it. Itβs been a while since Iβve been on a horse and was a little worried but Lucy was very patient and knowledgeable. Iβve never had such a detailed lesson! Everyone here is so lovely and the horses are well taken care of so I decided to book more lessons. :)β
