Our Approach

At Lands End Equestrian Centre, our goal is to help every rider be the best they can be—whether horse riding is your hobby, your way to relax, or a growing career.

We believe that understanding horse behaviour and care is just as important as learning to ride, which is why this knowledge is embedded into all our programs.

Children’s Activities

Pony Sessions

  • Duration: 2–3 hours

  • Includes: A group riding lesson (in the arena, field or hack), plus stable management topics such as mucking out, grooming, tack care, and horse anatomy.

  • Schedule: Weekly on Saturdays (AM & PM) during term time. Additional sessions available during school holidays.

  • Progression: These sessions lead into our Riding Club and eventually Loan Programme for children.

We follow Pony Club-style topics and tests to keep knowledge current for those who wish to progress into The Pony Club.

Walkout Lessons

Ideal for:

  • Beginners

  • Mixed age groups (including family lessons)

  • Riders wanting a more relaxed, scenic experience

Each rider has their own pony, with helpers on foot and an instructor guiding the session along the beautiful country lanes.

Child Private Lessons

Private lessons are an excellent way to target specific goals and progress through riding levels.
Please note: Due to high demand, our private lesson waiting list is currently closed.

Children’s Camps & Clinics

  • Clinics: Held during school holidays, focusing on SJ (Show Jumping), XC (Cross Country), Dressage, and Polework.

  • Camps: For independent riders, packed with activities. Our annual highlight is Eventers Camp—6 full days and 5 nights, culminating in a full ODE (One Day Event) on Saturday.

Note: Clinics and camps are available only to riders who attend weekly and/or loan with us.

Riding Club

  • Schedule: Saturdays, 8:00 AM – 3:15 PM (term time)

  • Open to children who ride weekly at Lands End.
