Been a long time since I last rode and even longer since I rode in a school! But Beth got the perfect level to stretch me but not too far. And Winston was wonderful.

Fantastic lessons and friendly people. I'm impressed with their stables. My daughter and I have just started learning and I've found the quality of teaching to be excellent.

Been here before, super helpful and professionalism isn't the best but natasha is there to help you yet also help you have fun. Very clean, no introduction around the barn but pony clubs are run by leaders and Beth and they both correct you when you are doing something bad. Very fun experience lovely teachers

I have rode at most of the riding schools in the local area and now ride exclusively at Willerby Hill. I cannot recommend Natasha , her school and her teaching staff (both Natasha and Beth are both amazing teachers ) highly enough. For me what sets a school apart, other than the teaching , is an owner who really cares for their horses. Natasha works incredibly hard to keep her horses happy, fit and safe. She has a real passion for horses and teaching and it shows in everything she does. The schools are well kept, the stables clean, the horses always well hayed , regularly turned out and well mannered and happy. Amazing job Tasha , thanks for all your hard work to give those who ride with you such a great experience

Just a side note on some comments about customer service. Natasha works incredibly long hours both caring for the horses and teaching - if she is unable to respond I guarantee she will be doing one of those things. Most people would not appreciate her taking a call mid lesson so understand when she cannot do it when you call. The horses and arenas are safe and healthy because she puts a huge amount of effort to make them so. Please be understanding, support her in what she does or we will lose great teachers like Tash who are really passionate about their jobs and the horses in her care

This is the kind of riding school I have been looking for! My instructor Natasha was fabulous! I have neurological, and physical disabilities, and I am getting on in years, so I was very nervous but Natasha immediately put me at ease, she is so intuitive and knew exactly how to help me gain confidence at a pace I could cope with. She made me laugh so much I forgot to be nervous, her instructions were clear and delivered without the shouting/barking commands I've experienced at other schools. The yard itself was very clean and well managed, the horse was calm and very responsive despite my mixed signals. I cannot wait for my next lesson, with Natasha's schooling I have a glimmer of hope I can learn without killing myself! Fantastic A*

Competition afternoon. Great indoor arena for the youngsters learning their way particularly with the atrocious weather.
Dressage, fancy dress and jumping from clear round to various heights. Plenty of rosettes to be had. The girls were loving the participation. Standards were varied but there was plenty of encouragement, advice and assistance for all. An enjoyable afternoon.

Can not speak highly enough of this riding school. Morgan is only six, and very shy little boy, and absolutely loves this place. Tash is a great teacher, who adapts her teaching skills to different riders.
Morgan had never ridden before, and is now working on his canter and jumps on his own!
It’s very busy stables, with lots of different well looked after horses. Clean facilities and stables. With indoor and outdoor arenas!
Also has a lovely cafe to go in while waiting for the lesson to finish! ?
