UK riding schools with junior lessons

According to Saddl's directory, there are 120 UK riding schools currently listed as offering junior or children's lessons. Junior lessons are typically structured as group sessions with horses or ponies matched to the child's size and ability.

Most established UK riding schools offer junior lessons, but the format varies. Some run dedicated children's lesson strings on smaller ponies; others slot juniors into mixed-age groups with appropriate matching. The list below covers yards that have indicated they teach children directly. Always check the minimum age, the maximum weight limit, and whether the school provides hat hire.
