β€œMy daughter has been riding here for a couple of years now. She absolutely loves it here. It is a family run business where they nurture the children to become great riders. They even give the riders without their own horses a chance to compete in competitions throughout the year. You can see the horses are well loved and cared for. Despite horse riding being an expensive hobby, snowball are very reasonably priced. They also have some very experienced teachers who have really helped my daughter grow in confidence while fine tuning her riding abilities. I will add they use EC PRO to book all lessons. This is an efficient system allowing me the freedom and ability to book which lessons suit my calendar.”

β€œI’ve been riding here for about a year and a half since starting as an adult beginner who had never been on an horse before, and I’ve been loving it! I have weekly private lessons with Abi and always look forward to them - she’s a brilliant instructor and super friendly. Jacob was also great when I first started too. The horses are all lovely, especially my favourite horse Sherbet. I also love going on hacks, they are really fun. I would definitely recommend!”

β€œMy daughter has been coming here for a couple of months now and it’s the highlight of her week. She has learnt so much and absolutely adores Alicia, who is just brilliant with her. Lovely family run business, really nice atmosphere and the ponies are obviously so well cared for and so gentle. She never wants to come home!”
