About this yard

Dimlands Riding School is a small family-run school and livery yard on the outskirts of Llantwit Major in the Vale of Glamorgan, established in 1994. A string of 34 horses and ponies covers all rider abilities. Group, semi-private and private lessons run alongside stable management courses; group lessons cap at eight riders. Two outdoor ménages including a large floodlit jumping arena allow lessons to extend into evenings year-round.
