Holly Bank Farm Riding School
About this yard
Holly Bank Farm Riding School is a small, family-run yard in Ashton-under-Lyne offering introductory and progressive riding lessons in a relaxed environment. Lessons are taught in an outdoor arena with the Tameside countryside available for hacking as riders progress. The yard keeps a mixed string of horses and ponies suitable for younger and lighter riders, and the informal atmosphere makes it a good starting point for children and nervous adults looking to build confidence.
