Bassingfield Riding School, Livery & Saddlery

Helen is the nicest, kindest teacher and great at teaching with a good understanding of horses, and really encourages you to come back again and again. This is definitely the highlight. The lessons are fun and have cool exercises and nice horses. One of the few barns that adapts to your level and doesn’t give you an automatic / lazy horse, with massification in lessons. They offer cross country in the summer and livery too.

After some years away from riding, contacted Helen after Christmas and have been enjoying a weekly lesson since. A thoroughly professional and friendly stables. Helen is a superb teacher - and the welfare of the horses and ponies is her top priority. A safe and welcoming environment- thoroughly enjoy my weekly therapy and would recommend totally 😊

Helen is the perfect coach through the private lessons. There are wide range of horses available for different level of riders. I really like to be in touch with horses and improve my equestrian skills. After 5 months of practice weekly, I can now cantering without using stirrups.

Brilliant lessons with Tara, Helen and David. All the horses are so well care for. They teach beginners to rusty riders and advanced riders. Highly recommended.

I've been riding here for over 10 years and I keep coming back (even though I now live 70 miles away) because of the quality and variety of the horses, the brilliant instructors and the hugely knowledgeable and lovely owner. The horses thankfully, dont follow the bottom in front; instead, I've learnt they all have their differences and to ride accordingly. I've introduced both my mum and my niece who both love it here too. I wouldn't go anywhere else!
