Testimonials

“My first experience of the Merrie Stud was as a child having riding lessons with Mrs Shaw. Twenty five years later when looking for a riding school for our three children the Merrie Stud was an easy choice. We knew we could rely on it being a fun, safe and reliable place for our children to learn not only the techniques of riding, but pony care and stable management. Mrs Shaw and Carolyn make an excellent team.”

Helen Orman

Penelope (age 9)

Lucy (age 5)


“I like going to Mrs Shaws on Saturdays and riding all the ponies and learning to jump and canter!”
