Saddle fitters Leicestershire

Andy Milner is excellent. Always had good service from him, puts the horse first and has saved me money by never trying to sell a saddle when the current one just needs a bit of altering.
 
I moved out of the county now, so wouldn't like to say about prices, but if you ring the shop, they'll be happy to tell you about call out and mileage charges.
FWIW, think I paid £50 3 years ago and he reflocked a saddle on the yard included in the price.
 
Nicola at Vale View (buckaroo equine) is FAB! She tries so hard to fit the best saddle to your horse. Both of mine are really difficult to fit at opposite ends of the spectrum- Rowan is xxx wide with no withers and lost of movement over his back and Dancer is mega narrow with a really dippy back.
Even though she didnt have anything in stock to fit rowan she went out of her way to research different types of saddle availiable and that were just being made which meant he now has a perfect fitting dressage saddle :D
The results of other saddles that other saddlers have fitted meant that Dancer had literally no muscle over her back or around her withers because everyone kept fitting them too narrow. I went to Nicola and she happened to have the Perfect fitting second hand saddle in stock. The best fitting saddle we have ever had for Dancer out of the (many) saddles we have had in the past including made to measure! Since then she has put loads of muscle on over her back and her flat work has come on loads.
She costs £40 to come out to you or you can take your horse to vale view and then I think its £25.
She also has barnsby come out to vale view so they can reflock/ alter your saddle on site so you can have it altered and then try it back on to see if it has the fixed the issue and if not then they retweak it and wont stop till its perfect :)
 
I have found Andy Milner brilliant. Had 2 very bad experiences with Bridlepath. Bargepole springs to mind. Should have wondered why they spend so much time in other counties further afield!
 
I use John ( cant remember his surname) from Barnsby! Hes brill!

Another one here who has also had a very bad experience with Bridlepath as have several other people on my yard.
