Advanced Adult Horse Riding Lessons Near Dublin

fermatstheorem

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if anyone could recommend some Advanced Adult Horse Riding Lessons Near Dublin.

I'm quite experienced in cross country riding but have done virtually no arena work. I've moved back to Dublin and would love to find somewhere I can go somewhat locally and start proper arena work. I dont mind driving to Kildare, Meath etc to find a good place.


Thanks

Are you looking or North or South of the city and what are you looking to get out of your lessons - is it just a weekly lesson or do you wish to maybe progress more and in the future loan or buy a horse?

Hi Bob,

I'm based in Ranelagh so I dont mind going either north or south. Yes I definitely want to improve. Up until August I was riding cross country 3 times a week. Yes plan to buy a horse.

By "arena work" do you mean just flat work ?

Try Dunbyrne out near Coliog -it's a decent enough drive out though. Pretty much anywhere will give a decent flatwork lesson of you want a private one.

If you have your own horse try The Stables at Swainstown (you'll find them on Facebook and they have a website) their head coach Conan is excellent (BHS instructor of the year 2013). They sometimes have loan horses or clients wanting to share. Hope you find somewhere you love.

Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated

Brennanstown isn't too far (about 30mins without traffic) or Bel Air which is a bit further.

For years, I used to ride in Killegar stables in Kilternan - only 20 mins or so from Ranelagh.

Or else the Paddocks stables is good too. Its up in Sandyford. I know you want to do flat work but they do some amazing hacks there....fantastic views!
