My name is Pat.I am a novice rider who totally lost my confidence after having a fall and a horse with a mind of her own.My husband booked me a surprise lesson to get me back in the saddle as I kept talking myself out of get on my own horse never mind another horse.I have now had four GREAT lesson's at Bourne Vale Stables, I have grown in confidence with not only my riding but with my own horse and I am loving it!!!The staff are super friendly, welcoming, are very helpful they are also very understanding to my nerves. My instructor does not push me to do anything I am still uncomfortable with, my lesson is set at a pace I can deal with and stay within my comfort zone for the whole of my lesson.The horses are so well looked after and loved by many, the stables always look clean and the horses look happy to be in their home. The grounds are maintained.I would recommend Bourne Vale Stables wholeheartedly to any who is just starting to ride or like me need a boost in confidence. it's a great place to go and a pleasure visit. Thank you Borne Vale for all you do and have done for me and my confidence!

I am absolutely thrilled to write this review for the horse riding stables where my daughter rides.The instructors here are nothing short of exceptional. Their dedication to teaching and ensuring the safety and enjoyment of each rider is truly remarkable. They are not just instructors; they are mentors who instill a deep love and respect for these magnificent animals. My daughter has grown immensely under their guidance, both as a rider and as an individual.The atmosphere at the stables is like no other. It's not just a place for horse riding; it's a second home where everyone genuinely cares about each other and the well-being of the horses. The level of professionalism displayed here is commendable. The horses are not just well cared for; they are loved and treated with the utmost respect.My daughter Giga always looks forward to her time at the stables, and as a father, there is no greater comfort than knowing she is in such capable hands. This establishment has created a nurturing and family-like environment that sets it apart from the rest.If you're looking for a horse riding experience that combines professionalism, warmth, and a true sense of belonging, look no further. This stables is a gem, and we are grateful to be a part of their horse-loving family. Thank you for everything you do!

We just had the most amazing afternoon at Bourne Vale stables, where we had our daughter's 7th birthday party. The staff were amazing, the horses very calm and the indoor riding facilities were perfect. Thanks again!

Unfortunately, you have lead the ponies yourself, which is hard when you are over 60. The pony didn't want to walk or trott my 9 year old couldn't kick it hard enough, and I couldn't pull it. The instructor blamed my child for not doing it right. A rocket couldnt get that pony to move. It was very frustrating when the other ponies were all doing it. My child felt humiliated and embarrassed by the instructor. I did complain afterwards but had no empathy or apologies from the instructor, which, for a first-time experience, it was not good. I came away with a very upset child, and I am dissatisfied with the quality of the lesson for the price.

My daughter loves to ride there .She is loving it today she was so proud of herself .I love watching her it brings a smile to my face every time I see her in her the best bit of her life xx

Amelia has lessons at Bourne Vale Stables for around 12 month now,Sarah is a Brilliant Teacher who is so lovely and patient and made my daughter feel so comfortable. She looks forward to her lessons every week.I can’t thank the staff enough for everything they do.The Horses are well maintained and well looked after they can be challenging at times but that gives my daughter the experience and more confidence how to learn how to handle them.10/10 for cleanliness of the stables and how tidy they are kept all the time.If you are looking for horse riding lessons I would recommend these to everyone :)

My daughter returned back to Bourne Vale after a few years and felt as though we had never left.She really enjoyed her lesson and can’t wait for the next one. After watching the delight on my daughter face I decided to have a go myself so I eagerly booked a private adult lesson. I was not disappointed the service I received from Sarah who was friendly and professional. Even though I was nervous as it was the first time I had been on a horse, Sarah made feel relaxed and confident as if I had been riding for years .My horse Sally had a very gentle temperament and it was a very good match for a nervous beginner.

Had my first lesson at Bourne Vale Stables today and I cannot begin to describe how enlightened I am and how much I have learned. Although I have a bit of previous experience in trotting, Denise fixed the mistakes I was doing and taught me a handful of tips, tricks and techniques to implement in my riding. I learned so much in 30 mins than I would have doing 10 lessons at a different riding school.Denise was incredibly informative, supportive and instructive in everything she did and taught me. Overall, an amazing experience and I will definitely be coming back soon.To top everything off, after my lesson, Denise asked me if I wanted to bring the horse in and she taught me how to tackle off the bridle and saddle out of the kindness of her heart.Believe me when I say that every pound was worth it!!! Highly, highly, highly recommend!All praise to the lovely Denise!

My daughter is a regular horse rider at this stables after we moved from another. She was welcomed into the stables and has made a vast improvement in both her horse riding and knowledge of a horse. She enjoys all aspects of her lesson from riding to turning the horses in at the end of her lesson. She loves her horse riding lessons and is always treated with great respect being a young rider. The staff are very polite and professional and have worked hard to help her build confidence after falling off previous.

Three session in and I can’t recommend Bourne Vale Stables enough. The horse are well maintained as are the stables but the care given to each rider is exceptional. Sarah and Grace are excellent in supporting all the riders and their individual needs. Sarah has the patience of a saint and her teaching is second to none. Amazing riding school. Ayva can’t wait for her next session.
