🏆 Funzaroo Verdict

Best for families with children aged 5 and up who want properly qualified instruction in a countryside setting. The simulator is a genuine confidence-builder for nervous first-timers before they ride. Hacking routes through Surrey countryside suit more experienced riders and older children who want variety beyond the arena.

“The best riding school. The horses are happy and looked after. And from what I can see there is a horse for everyone's needs here. The instructors are friendly, patient, calm and helpful. I have learned so much from them. The hacking is countryside and right on their doorstep, with space to have a good run, or a gentle walk through the woods. They also have a mechanical if you are a beginner or someone in need of a safe practise of a skill-set.”
