About this yard
Equitable Riding Academy is an ABRS+ approved riding school at Springfield Farm in the Surrey Hills, founded by Barry and Marie Sheppard, who revived the previously derelict farm into the academy it is today. Home to over 20 horses across five paddocks and 20 acres, it offers riding experiences on varied terrain, an Olympic-sized training school, an all-weather gallop track, and hacking around the surrounding countryside, for riders of all ages and abilities.
Instructors bring over 50 years of combined teaching and competitive experience between them, including specialisms in showjumping and the retraining of racehorses.
