“No hour of life is wasted that is spent in the saddle.”
— Winston Churchill
We offer both private and group lessons at Belmont Farm; bring your own horse or use one of our friendly mounts to either start your journey with horses, fine tune your skills or return to riding following a break. All riders must apply to ride at Belmont Farm - we are looking for the most suitable riders for groups and horses. We want our horses to feel LOVED by their riders.
We operate on a in-house Levels System, where we can track the individual progress of our riders. At the end of each term, parents and students receive formal feedback on where they are at with their riding directly from their coach.
Riding Lessons for Children.
Our engaging lessons for children focus on the fundamentals of riding, providing solid foundations to build horsemanship and lifelong skills.

We offer Adult Lessons, privately or in a group. These lessons aim to instill confidence in your abilities to ride a horse effectively, and develop technique. We teach a mixture of abilities and aim to create a solution for you that fits your own circumstances and reason for riding.
Investing in time in the saddle has huge benefits for your mental health, nervous system and fitness.
