Burley Villa – Riding Lessons and Forest Rides in the New Forest National Park

We offer English or Western saddle Riding Lessons for all standards in our Indoor or Outdoor Arenas throughout the year.

Our exciting winter programme of lessons and courses starts at the beginning of November – along with two new Riding Instructors who will be adding their expertise to our team.

We have courses introducing you to English or Western saddle riding on Wednesdays. Wednesday is also ‘Mum’s Morning’ with the all important tea and cake and, in the afternoon, a new one off special offer – buy one get one free on private lessons for new clients wanting to try our instruction and facilities on their own horse or on one of ours.

Thursday evening it’s jumping with an ‘Introduction to Polework and Jumping’ group followed by one to one private jumping lessons. Then it’s ‘Riding to Music’ on Friday evenings.

Sunday afternoons we have ‘Jumping’ and ‘Combined Training’ groups and then every Tuesday, one to one Private Riding lessons all day with Private Lunge lessons into the evening.

So lots going on over the next few months. Please call , email or pop in if you would like any more information or help. Hope to meet you soon.

Children can join us on Beginner Lead Rein or Steerer’s groups, gaining experience before moving onto our Pony Club. Or, for a one off taster experience, there is the ‘Kidz Brush n Ride’ getting ‘hands on’ brushing and tacking up your pony before your ride or, during the summer months, you can join a Pony Trail around our fields and woods.

Whether a beginner or a seasoned rider, young or old, we can take you Horse Riding over the ancient lands of the New Forest.

We ride out amongst the wild ponies on the forest greens and into the woodlands and forest tracks where you may be lucky and spot wild deer or the other animals and birds that thrive in the wonderful New Forest National Park. This really is the best way to enjoy the tranquility, wildlife and beauty of the New Forest

We welcome beginners on gentle, walk and jog Western Trails whilst more experienced riders can ride into the National Park on midweek group Walk and Trot or Private Canter Hacks.
