Opened in July 2017 we are a fully insured, licensed equestrian centre and member of the Association of British Riding Schools. We offer lessons, activity days, camps, 'own a pony' days, birthday parties, beach and trail hacks for all ages from 4 years upwards from qualified instructors and staff who are First Aid trained and DBS checked. We welcome novice and experienced riders with or without their own horse and have both adult and child beginners groups as well as one to one tuition with a structured program allowing riders to monitor their progress towards industry qualifications. Our instructors have experience working with both children and adults with physical and learning difficulties so please enquire for more details. Ladies mornings are a great opportunity to ride and meet new and existing friends in a social environment. If returning to the saddle after a long break we can help you with confidence building sessions

Definitely one of the best family accommodation places we have had. Very helpful staff. Plenty of room for our very varied large family unit. Including teens & young children (The dates on trip advisor won't let me change to actual)

Five hours walking from Newport via Shide (where walk starts) to Bembridge,so you need to be a keen walker O.S. map needed as my brochure was inadequate.By end of walk, I was tired but exhilarated by this route,which starts with longish ascent to reveal great views of Portsmouth and Solent. Very varied scenery which will not disappoint if you have stamina. Would like to do it again next year.

Lovely beach on the south coast of the Island. Wonderful sandy beach, but be aware of the rocks in the sea at high tide. Parking available at the top of cliff, but try to get here early if the weather is good as it does fill up quickly. Unfortunately toilets were also closed when we visited, luckily we had no need for them, but could see it being a problem if visiting with young children.
