About this yard

Aldersbrook Riding School and Livery Stables is a well-established yard located on Empress Avenue in east London, tucked alongside Wanstead Park and five minutes from the open spaces of Wanstead Flats and Epping Forest. With both a large indoor school and an outdoor arena, the school offers all-weather riding year-round, and the adjacent green spaces provide excellent off-road hacking trails for more experienced riders. BHS-qualified instructors offer private, semi-private, and small group lessons from complete beginners to more experienced riders. The school is particularly known for its welcoming community atmosphere and careful approach to rider confidence. Pre-school and under-8 morning sessions are available, alongside children's activities including grooming sessions, birthday rides, holiday shows, and competitions. Basic livery is also offered for local horse owners.
