Belfairs Riding School
About this yard
Belfairs Riding School is based inside Belfairs Park near Leigh-on-Sea in Essex, offering lessons and hacking on natural woodland trails rather than in a conventional arena. It is 5-star council licensed and supports RDA inclusive riding. Group and private lessons, pony rides, and woodland hacks available for children and adults. Sunday pony rides (10am-1pm) are a drop-in introduction to riding for children aged 4+, no booking needed. All other bookings are made by email; the phone is only manned on Saturdays and Sundays.
