About this yard

Tarden Farm Riding Stables sits at 100 Gibb Lane, Mellor in the foothills of the Peak District, just outside Stockport. The yard specialises in hacking out for experienced riders rather than running a traditional riding school programme; novice lessons and beginner treks are not offered. Off-road hacking access onto the Peak fringes is the headline draw. Booking and updates run primarily through the Tarden Farm Facebook page.
