Cotswolds Riding      

For any rider the choice of riding school, or riding centre can be difficult but particularly so for the first time rider wishing to take those first lessons.

The local riding schools and riding centres offer not only tuiton, they will normally offer facilities for Hacking and pony trekking.

There are two organisations that set standards for riding schools: the British Horse Society (BHS) and the Association of British Riding Schools (ABRS) . Any riding school approved by one or both of these organisations ensures that they meet the standard required by these organisations. Therefore it is always best to locate a school which has been approved by one or both of these organisations. Riding schools are inspected every year and so any approval should be current.
