Old mill saddlery

[m1stify]

Anyone been here for saddle fitting? It's a long trip for me so need to know its worth it!

Yes I've been a couple of times, once to get my unbacked youngster a saddle fitted to him and once with a friend to check the fit of saddles she already had and for adjustments to be done.

They have the largest selection of saddles I've ever seen and the ones I've looked at have all been a good price. I would say you need to make sure the fitter sees you ride in all paces and fits to you not just the horse as the times I've been this hasn't been necessary or possible but when I go back for my youngsters next saddle fit he will be ridden away and I will want a full fitting session to be done.

Robert Patton is excellent and really helped me out when another saddler did a truly awful job. Great selection and there's now a sandschool to ride in properly before you buy

Fantastic saddlery, I buy all my equipment from them. Fitted my horse's saddle and I've never had any problems!!!!

Amazing!! Found the perfect saddle for my horse Ben who had an unusually straight back and took out padding from the saddle and gave us a great price

Yup, it's a very good saddlery and well worth making the effort to go there - but Robert will also come to you (for a fee, obviously).

excellent saddle fitters, he can also (usually!) alter while you wait as well, they managed to change the position of girth straps for me in about an hour.
Well worth the trip, we make the trek at least annually He is also very straight - will re-fit to the best of his abilities!

Well I went and got on great. Would really recommend. Spent far too much money though but hey I don't need to eat right!!

Robert couldn't have been more helpful and I'm not even in the country!
