Moving into our new farm has brought exciting new opportunities for growing roots! Whilst we love our adventures out on location and our trail riding holidays, it has been great to develop new products for our growing following of local Wildlings and for other equestrian groups and enthusiasts in the area.
This winter saw the birth of our after schools' Saddle Club which with the local youth still hungry for more now runs all day every Sunday. Whilst we are always coaching out on the trail, we are now offer regular riding lessons for adults and children, on a group or private basis. For any adults looking for a bit of confidence building around horses or just an opportunity for some quality horse time, we are looking to develop an 'Adults After School Club'. And for those of you who are keen to develop their general horsemanship skills there are opportunities for you too, with new events being developed all the time so watch this space. It's an exciting time for us and we look forward to adventuring with you all.

Wilder Ways offer both adult and children riding lessons, available to locals and visitors, either as one offs or as regular slots. We cater for all abilities so whether you have never sat on a horse before or you are an experienced competent rider we are here to support you and provide opportunities to develop your riding!
We have a real mix of horses to suit your ability and needs - have a look at our trusty herd members here. Alternatively, you can bring your own horse for a lesson. Our coaches are particularly experienced in building confidence in horse and rider and nudging you out of your comfort zone to achieve your goals. They know the horses like the back of their hand enabling them to select horses to allow you to get the most out of your sessions. |

We offer both private and group lessons. Private lessons are much more focused on you, they will give you an intense session and lots to think about. Group lessons have the benefit of the social aspect allowing you to learn from others and gives you some time to digest what is being said. If you do opt for a group lesson these will be built of riders of a similar experience level and therefore as you progress you may have to change slots.
All lessons will be designed to:

Our arena is also available for hire by private individuals and groups/clubs. Find out more here.
If you buy a book of 7 lessons get your 8th for free! Valid for 12 months after purchase. Prior to booking, please email [email protected] to confirm availability. |
