About this yard
Wellow Trekking Centre is a BHS-approved riding school and trekking centre at Little Horse Croft Farm in Wellow, about six miles from the centre of Bath. Set in beautiful Somerset countryside, it offers lessons and trekking for adults and children of all ages and abilities, with a large selection of rides through the Wellow valley and surrounding countryside. Spare boots in most sizes and correctly fitted hats are provided.
Beyond riding, there is an on-site cafe and tearoom, a play park, and small animals to see, making it a workable half-day family visit. A separate corporate and group hospitality arm offers activities including archery and clay pigeon shooting.
Note: short child pony-hire sessions are among the options offered alongside full lessons and treks — worth confirming ride length when booking so expectations match.

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.
