Hi,
I've just moved to Purley and I'm just wondering if anyone knows of any tack shops around this area willing to travel 30mins? Thankyou :)
 
Woldingham saddlery at the crescent, woldingham. Small shop but Ted is a harness maker so does leatherwork, repairs etc. 15-20 mins from Purely.
 
Can also recommend Woldingham Saddlery, Ted has done some lovely bridlework for us, and although the shop is relatively small he packs a lot of stock in there, both new and secondhand.

Contact details are:

Woldingham Saddlers,
10 The Crescent,
Woldingham,
Surrey,
CR3 7DB
Telephone: 01883 652255
 
Hengest is my favourite and Ted's good.

There is also Superpet in Banstead, not huge but another selection

Further away is Speedgate (Used to be called frogpool) in chilsehurst and in Biggin Hill the is the saddlery and gunroom for tack and Baverstocks for feed.
 
Thankyou, can't wait to spend some free time exploring these!

I know of frogpool as I used to be taken there as a child on special occasions, it was my first thought on being one of the closest but didn't know if there were any hidden gems?!
 
Also Chobham Rider in (predictably) in Chobham. Buttons Saddlery in West End. Lester Bowden's in Epsom. (Very expensive but fun to look!) Rokers and Fosburies outside Guildford. If you want a day trip Robinsons has their largest superstore just outside Basingstoke - about 40 minutes away.

Oh wow, is Ted still going? That's excellent news. He's a darned good bloke and he helped us out a lot when we were novicey horse owners.

Yes, Ted's still going, I see him at shows occasionally, he started up just after I did and we send customers to each other now and again if we can't help them.

How cool :) When you see him next, tell him Esther (of Esther & Derek with Harry & Poppy) says hello. Some of my horse gear is still the original kit that he sold me back in the day, and I've still got the cart I bought from him.
