My 15 year old daughter moved to Fordbank nearly 4 years ago just after Fiona took over and i can honestly say it is a fantastic yard. She wanted to learn to jump and now under Fionas guidence and instructions she is now competing in BSJA competitions. She is in the process of changing from a pony to a horse and Fiona has halped her all the way, right down to helping her to find the right horse to buy. She has built up very close friendships with the other girls there and would not move yard for anything. Everyone is friendly and fun to be arround. The yard is well supervised at all times and very well run, with a wide variety of horses to suit all levels of riding ability from beginners to advanced. My 10 year old daughter also attends pony days and pony camps and she absolutly loves it. She has had her birthday parties at the yard and has took along many of her friends. She enjoys the fact that they get taught all about the horses, how to look after them, groom, feed etc. Not many places give children the opportunity to learn this first hand without actually owning their own pony.
All in all Fordbank is a great yard and everyone there is happy to be there.
