Gooseham Barton Stables has been running on a 50-acre holding on the North Cornwall-North Devon coast near Bude since 1974. The yard is BHS approved and offers riding for all ages and levels, with horses suiting beginners and experienced riders alike, in English or Western tack. Four self-catering cottages on the holding sleep groups of 4 to 10 and are well placed for combining riding with a coastal stay. Hour-long rides take riders out across the unspoilt clifftop and inland countryside.
What to wear
Standard guidance for equestrian yards in the UK. Check with your yard if you're unsure.
A correctly fitted hat to current safety standards (PAS 015 or VG1). Bicycle helmets are not permitted. Hats are available to hire, usually reserved for first-time riders.
Boots with a small heel, riding boots, walking boots or wellies all work. Trainers and flat-soled shoes are not permitted for safety reasons.
Close-fitting, weather-appropriate clothes. Shoulders and legs must be covered, no vest tops or shorts. Jackets and coats should be fastened securely. Waterproofs are recommended for outdoor lessons.
Long hair should be tied back in a ponytail before putting on your helmet. All jewellery must be removed before riding.
Clients arriving in unsuitable clothing or footwear may not be permitted to ride, for their own safety. If in doubt, contact the yard before your visit.
