Sarah - July 2010
I felt I was going to be too old to learn to ride at my age. However as soon as I arrived Zoe put me at ease and I was introduced to the horse I would be riding. Well that was it I fell in love with Robbie!
Robbie will always be my favourite even though I now ride lots of the others. I enjoy the variety of lessons and enjoy riding as part of a small group.
Thanks Zoe for all the lessons and the future ones to come!

Georgia - July 2010
My lessons at Plum Park are great fun. I get to ride lots of different ponies. I think Hawke is my favourite. Zoe and Nikki get you doing lots of different things and make sure you work hard and have a good time. My favourite is jumping in the fields and cantering too.

Ellie - June 2010
I really enjoyed pony day. It was so much fun I got to play pony games riding one of my favourite ponies, Jonny. I was shown how to groom and tack up my own pony and also got to do a treasure hunt! Even the mucking out of the stables wasn’t too bad because we all worked together! Thank you to Zoe, the girls and all the ponies especially Jonny!!

Raye and the girls - 6th June 2010
We have just been up to Plum Park Farm for a visit this weekend and (as we are old friends of the family) Zoe kindly offered us a hack out on a few of the riding school horses.
I haven't ridden since last October due to a slipped disc and profess to being a little nervous of getting back on. My eldest daughter Abbey 13yrs, is a fairly good rider but is used to a smaller horse and my youngest Ellie who is 11 yrs old unfortunately broke both bones in her wrist jumping her own 4 yr old recently. So as you can tell, we were not the most accomplished, confident bunch but Zoe assured us that her riding school horses would look after us and that they did!
I rode Robbie, Abbey had Maddock and Ellie was on Ike (and the lovely Chloe - one of Zoe's staff - took young Billy) and we had a wonderful hour and half hack around the farm and surrounding areas - including some great cantering! I can honestly say that I trusted Ike to look after Ellie - even cantering one handed! Robbie was a dream and Abbey fell head over heals for Maddock.
So thank you Zoe & Chloe for the ride and of course Brian & Debbie, Jamie & Ellie for a lovely welcome and a great weekend and Nicky for inviting us in the first place - we had a ball as usual! Hope to see you all soon ( won't leave it so long next time).
Much love and Thanks, Raye and the girls x

Natascha - 24th February 2010
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Zoe and all the girls (and Maddock of course)
I started riding in September last year and was very nervous, I had ridden a couple of times as a teenager but never actually had lessons. To start with I was terrified about falling off so when I had a fall, I was reluctant to get back on, thankfully, Zoe was quite firm and urged me to get back on. I ride with a lovely group at the same time every week, and we have gotten to know each other quite well. I look forward to Saturdays, although I ache for the rest of the week!Zoe is a fantastic teacher, who doesn't let you get away with much, you feel like you are actually learning something new every week.If anyone is thinking of joining but worried they may be too old or unfit .. don't worry, Zoe will not let you ride if she doesn't think you are capable ... and it's great fun
A MASSIVE thank you to Zoe, all her team, the horses and the farm.

Calvin - 12th June 2009
my name is calvin, I am 10. I have been riding with Zoe for about to 2 years. I like cross country and the school when we do some jumping, dont really like hacks but i go on them and they are getting better, last time my mum came too. I love own a pony days, theses are really good fun and the barbque is well nice. FLIN is my favourite BIG horse, BLITZ, KITE AND TESS ARE ALL MY FAVOURITES TOO. I have met friends when I go riding at the stables. Its nice of Brian and Debbie to let us see sheep, lambs, calfs and foals, and now the hounds, they are really funny.
