Welcome to SUMMERHOUSE EDUCATION AND EQUITATION CENTRE

Summerhouse is owned and run by Sheila Weston and Helen Gallop. Helen holds the BHSI, is an internal and external verifier and is a BHS and Pony Club Examiner. We have professional, fully qualified instructors including 1 BHSI, 3 BHSII and 10 BHSAI.

Whether you are a beginner or a more experienced rider, we have the horses to suit you. We also have a Pony Club for children without ponies and run summer camps every year. Our birthday parties are very popular.

The yard is home to 50 horses - ranging from Chester the 12 lead rein pony to Porthos our 17.3hh Shire Cross. We have horses to suit everyone's needs, whether riding for the first time or training towards BHS exams.

Facilities include 2 Indoor Arenas, 25m x 75m; an Olympic Size Outdoor Arena, Cross Country Course, heated viewing gallery and classrooms.

There are various activities held at the centre that range from lessons, to competitions and clinics, to fundays and pony club camps. We pride ourselves in being a friendly, approachable yard whilst maintaining a very positive attitude to attainment and achievement.

We can help you train towards many qualifications as we are an NVQ training supplier and BHS 'Where to train' centre for all exams up to BHSI. We hold training courses for each level every month.

We also run First Aid, Assessor, Internal Verifier and Transport Qualification Courses.

We are a competition centre for British Dressage and BSJA and we also run Unaffiliated dressage and show jumping every month to qualify for the Championship in September.
