Hi, I'm new to this forum and I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a decent riding school on the Wirral, preferably close to Neston?

I've been out of practice for a while due to a knee op but I'm hoping to get back into riding when I move to Neston later this year. I would really like a friendly yard with a range of horses, not just typical riding school 'plodders'. I've heard mixed reviews about a couple but I'm leaning towards the Wirral Riding Centre, I think. Does anyone have any experience here? Is there a nice yard atmosphere?

Many thanks :)
 
I've ridden at Barnston and liked it, horses were in good nick, and not total dobbins. They often do an offer on groupon.
 
Yep, really only the 3 already mentioned! Of all of the foxes is probably the most highly regarded. The Wirral is under new management but I've only ever competed there in the past so I couldn't comment on the current level of instruction. It will definitely be the closest for you - look out as they sometimes do groupon offers! :)
 
I don't think it's just you webble! I think because its the biggest and holds so many shows it gets the most PR. I've had a few lessons at barnston but that was just before it came under new management as well, so I couldn't say what it was like now. My friends daughter had some lessons there recently and she was very pleased with it though.
 
I've had a couple of bad experiences with Foxes too. Wirral is fantastic though and cant fault the horses (good range or plods to quite sharp and sensitive horses) X
 
Does anyone want to pm me their bad experiences with Foxes? Got a lesson there on Thursday and starting to worry now!
