Hollie and her team are absolutely amazing, my daughter attends different days run here such as home ed, evening pony share, mini rider as well as easter and Christmas events and loves them all! The ponies and horses are extremely well cared for as are the other animals that are lucky enough to call this home. My daughter has learned so much from everyone here and absolutely adores visiting and helping take care of all the ponies, horses, chickens and goats. Thank you Hollie and Team 🥰🐎
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for animal-loving children who want hands-on involvement beyond just riding — feeding, grooming, and caring for multiple species. Staff are particularly attentive with children who become upset or anxious, turning difficult moments into positive ones. Families who attend regularly come back for multiple programme formats.

“I took my daughter for a Christmas Eve pony morning and she had the most incredible time. Everyone was so lovely there especially the lady running it. My daughter had so much fun and even when she was a bit sad they were great with her and cheered her up and reassured her all is ok. I honestly can’t recommend this place enough and I love how well the animals are looked after too, that’s a big thing for us. I will be booking some days in from January for her. Thank you so so much xxxx”
