Western Riding in Kent / Sussex

[Kittykins]

Hi all,

I'm thinking of taking on a friend's "problem" horse. She's not really particularly malicious, but, having spent a summer a few years ago riding in America, I think she would benefit from being retrained to Western Style riding in order to be more relaxed when out hacking. Does anyone know anyone in Kent or Sussex who works with horses in the western style? Ideally it would be good to send her to a yard full livery for a few weeks, rather than trying to do it myself at home.

I do seem to remember there is a lady near Sevenoaks who does that sort of thing, but can't for the life of me find any contact details. Any help / advice gratefully received!

KK.

There is also Court Lodge Farm in Bodium:

I think West End Farm in Goddards Green also do western - but I cannot find a website!

My brother once had a western lesson with Suzi Anderson at Bodium, he said she was lovely and her yard set up was fab.

I think this is the lady in Sevenoaks you are referring to - she is particularly good with problem horses:
