Went out today for a hack up on to the Quantocks. Great ponies which gave us some fun and the lady that took us (apologies can't remember your name) was friendly and great company. Thank you. We'll be back!

This is a wonderful friendly yard. The teaching is of a superior standard. I always look forward to my lessons. Thankyou Sarah and gang and the lovely horses of course for teaching me lots x

This is a fantastic place to learn how to ride. The staff are friendly and they made me and my partner feel welcomed in a polite and warm manner. Whether you are experienced like my partner or a newbie like me, the hobby horse instructors adapt your lessons around your level of skill giving us the confidence to ride. The horses are also very friendly and you can tell these horses are looked after with such compassion and care.

Sarah is brilliant with my daughter and manages to bring the best out of her every lesson. My daughter especially loved the recent day she spent at the school learning all about the horses as well as playing games! My daughter will be returning for another day as well as lessons and I'm even thinking of starting myself! I highly recommend.

Sarah is a very good teacher and my daughter learnt more in one 45 min lesson than she learnt from her other riding school the whole time she was there. Lovely atmosphere and very accomodating.

Sarah is a fantastic teacher who is helping my horse Buddy and I achieve our dreams!

Her lessons are SO much fun and we always finish having made progress.

She is very encouraging and never makes you feel worried or uses fear or force to get results!

Oh, and she has even got me jumping again after I lost my confidence after a nasty fall many years ago.

I can't recommend her highly enough!

If you're looking for someone to help you achieve your dreams then look no further!

Sarah is a fantastic teacher and is amazing with children of all ages - as well as adults!

She has taught me how to ride and generally be around horses (as I'm a bit of a scary cat at times!) she's a very calm and understanding teacher who is very passionate and competent at what she does.

I can throughly recommend her and I can guarantee your children will have a fantastic time learning how to interact and ride horses!

Our daughter Hannah had her 4th birthday party at Hobby Horse Riding Centre along with 8 other friends. She absolutely loved every second! As a parent it was hassle free as Sarah was so helpful and organised everything. Highly recommended.

My daughter discovered Hobby Horse riding centre last year, and we were impressed by the quality, professionalism and friendliness of the whole team. Sarah is a fine and competent instructor and I would highly recommend this center to anyone who's interested in horses and horse riding.

My 4 and a half year old absolutely loved his lesson this morning! First time on a horse (only donkey rides previously) and I thought he was so confident and Sarah and her helpers were so good with him! He hasn’t stopped talking about it all day, he asked if he could go back tomorrow! Rebooked for next week just fab!! Thank you, all smiles here!! Xx

Lovely friendly riding school. Sarah was helpful and patient on our trek over the Quantocks yesterday. The horses were well matched to the riders abilities. We thoroughly recommend Hobby Horse. Priced reasonably.

I have been riding at Hobby Horse for 3 years and now own beautiful Dolly who is on working livery there, Sarah has given me the confidence to get back in to riding and to own my own horse, she is brilliant with both adults and children and tailors all lessons to suit the individuals needs!

All horses and ponies are loved by so many and get the best care possible!

I would highly recommended Hobby Horse for lessons, Trecks, hacks and anything you would like to learn about horses �

I booked this for myself and my two little girls (3/4). We all had a fabulous little trek, Sarah was absolutely lovely, they looked after the girls throughout and gave me really good tips and advice to enhance my riding. Beautiful day for riding!

Hi Sarah & co, We just wanted to say a big 'thank you' for the girls lovely pony party in December. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it & all girls are now asking for ponies! Not only did they have fun but they learnt a lot too, which was brilliant. Thank you!

User

Hannah, my daughter can't stop thinking about last two days, horses, and how well she was spending her time. This morning before second day in Horse Riding Center, she was up at 06:00 asking me when we going:)))) I think thats explain how good Sarah Williams did, and how much kids loves it.

Thank you so much Sarah for making my child happy, and I'm sure that we will be back as soon as you make another chance for us to do so.

Well done and all the best .
