We absolutely love Ampfield. When our daughter joined in 2022 she progressed in a year faster than she had over three years in her previous yard. She has loaned three different horses, all of excellent character and quality and has taken part in unaffiliated and affiliated competitions with brilliant results. The instructors are friendly and professional and look after the riders while making sure they get the right instruction and skills they need to improve their riding. Both flat and jump private and group lessons are very beneficial and have helped our daughter improve immensely. I have also joined Ladies Morning, a group one hour session for older riders who wish to restart riding, improve or just have a bit of riding fun with likeminded people. The stables also offer beach rides and forest hacks which are very popular. Highly recommended.

Welcome to Ampfield Riding Stables. We offer instruction for ages 4 years old to 70 years years old. Our ponies and horses, combined with our enthusiastic instructors aim to provide you with not only expert tuition but fun.
We try to keep our lessons small, with no more than 4 – 8 in a group. All groups will be made up of similar standards . We provide training from complete beginners to advanced in flatwork and showjumping, we have a purpose built lunge pen for lunge lessons and the very nervous.
Gerda Weston has an excellent reputation in helping riders to reach their full potential. Gerda worked with the Royal Family’s horses before starting her teaching career in 1972. Once her daughter Anna Beck started competing in 1986 Gerda devoted her time in training Anna to the highest level.
