Livery Yards riding schools and venues in the UK
Saddl lists 114 UK livery yards venues, from riding schools and training yards to specialist centres. Coverage is strongest in Hampshire, Hertfordshire and Northumberland. 33 of them hold BHS approval, an independent check on instruction, horse welfare and safety. Every listing is reviewed before we publish it, so what you see reflects a real working yard rather than a stale directory entry. Browse by county below, or open a venue to see live contact details, prices and the disciplines it actually offers.
