Western Clinic

Try your hand at Western Riding in the relaxing authentic ranch style setting of Learning to Listen and hang out with your horse and the team at our Saloon!

Western Equestrian Society (W.E.S.) approved instructor Megan Roughley will take you step by step through an introduction to western aids, reining patterns and cow herding.

We have the facilities to cater for a wide range of abilities from beginners in western riding to more experienced riders and horses. Each group is tailored to you and your horse.
