Welcome to the horse riding adventure that offers “Hacking with a Difference in Surrey”...and now serious tuition as well!
Hopeful Earl, our riding stables at Painshill Farm, is situated not far from Guildford, in the heart of the glorious Surrey Hills. Here you will find some of the best hacking (trail-riding) in the South of England as well as lessons for beginners up to advanced level in all disciplines, whether it be cross-country, dressage, or showing.
If you have always admired the power and beauty of the racehorse and dreamed of being able to ride one, look no further. Ian McAlpine, the proprietor, specialises in offering customers the rare opportunity to ride an ex-racehorse. But don't worry, you don’t need to be an experienced rider to be able to sample the thrill of riding one of these magnificent thoroughbreds. Our horses have been retrained to provide exciting but safe riding to suit all levels of experience be it complete novice or at competition level.
As Ian says “My horses are my passion, and we run a friendly, relaxed yard here where everyone is welcome.” So, read more about Ian and his stables in the accompanying pages, and call him for a chat.
