Loan/Share Packages
Our loan packages are suitable for students and clients that want to improve their riding (either just for fun or for college) and are not yet suited to our open loan scheme. With our loans you will receive a minimum of 2 lessons per week (a mixture of hacking, dressage, jumping and stable management). You then get to have a feel of what owning a horse/pony is like as you also get to clean out you stable, clean tack and brush your horse/pony without all the extra costs. You have set days each week to look after your horse/pony and weekday lessons are on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. To become a loaner you must be in weekly lessons, you can then register your interest and b invited onto the scheme.
Please ask for more information or if you would like us to create a bespoke package for you.

About our loan package
This package is suited for off-lead rein riders only.
Loaners will have their own horse or pony for 2–3 days each week. On these days, you will have dedicated time with your pony — and to make it easier to fit around your busy schedule, we take care of all morning duties for you. You will also receive 2 group lessons per week as part of your package (these can be in any form i.e. ridden, stable management, practical etc).
On the third day (depending on your riding level), you will spend time caring for your pony: grooming, cleaning tack, and helping with stable duties — great hands-on experience that helps you build a real bond with your pony.
What is included:
- 2 group lessons per week
- All hay, straw and bedding
- Vets’ bills
- Tack
- Discounts on additional lessons, shows and clinic
This is a wonderful way to enjoy having your own pony, without the full cost and commitment of outright ownership. You are very welcome to buy special items for your pony if you wish — such as numnahs, headcollars or rugs — but these are not required.
To take up a loan, we first need to assess your riding ability, then check if we have a suitable horse or pony available. If you would like to proceed, please email your details to us to book an assessment. You can also send any questions by email, or call or text Suzy on 07834 838111.
We may have other loan packages available, so please let us know your requirements and we will do our best to accommodate you.
