I trained at bold heath ec for five years the only reason i left was that i fell pregnant. Whilst there i gained my BHS stages 1,2,3 and my ptt (prelimanary teaching test). When looking for somewere to train i visited many equestrian centres none with either the fantastic facilities or high standard of horses which bold offers. The riding school has an inspection every year on the quality of tack, condition of the horses and conditions they are kept in,so if there was any problems with all... (read more)

“Bold Heath ”
Written on: 25/04/2012
I went here for a year I did not do anything else but trot the lessons were far to big about 9 people at a time also the horses there are not well treated as there are so many some share stables and some don't get mucked out every day as required .some instructors are very young and don't proved the service you are paying for . My daughter went there and as soon as she moved riding school she started cantering and jumping and has improved lots also they have test days we're they assess your... (read more)

“Riding and Livery”
Written on: 14/06/2011 by scraggy10
I am relatively new to Bold Heath after being to many riding schools and a couple of Livery Yards. I can honestly say that it is run very professional, the staff are very helpful and none abtrusive. They do not through themselves at you but are always there if you need advice at all. There are two sides to Bold Heath on the Livery side both are well maintained. The Horses are well looked after and not over worked. The facilites are second to none at the moment there are three outdoors, and... (read more)

Written on: 24/08/2010
Having read the reviews i felt i had to write and express my opinion. i have been riding for about 35years and have been at Bold for about 7years now. Whilst the stables are not the most modern of buildings ie brick built, the care and love the horses and ponies receive is second to none and i believe this is the most important factor. The owner loves them all as if they are her children and all are kept and cared for until the end of their days. I have been to some upmarket stables... (read more)

I LOVE IT! Bold heath is the best riding school i have ever been to. i've tried a few over the last couple of years but this is by far the best. it has great facilities, many well behaved horses and ponies and lots of lovely and caring staff. every animal is treated well and there are so many that can be used from beginners up to an advanced level.
The staff are all well trained and are so kind, helpful and are generally nice to talk to and to be taught by. the yard is always kept as clean...

Its a really friendly and kind riding school, the staff are really helpful and you do loads in your lessons. I've learnt everything I know from being at Bold Heath and I would recomend it to anyone who wants to ride for fun. If you help out you can get a show pony and do shows, all the regulars that help out there are really helpful and make sure you know where your going. It's a really lovely and friendly place, the horses are good natured and are of all abilities for all riders. Defo 5*... (read more)

Written on: 28/06/2010
I have been riding for nine years now and I have been to other riding schools all over merseyside but I have always found my way back to bold heath as the ponies and horses are all school masters and they know what they are doing and give confidence to the riders. The staff are always on hand to assist and to answer any queries and they also show you around the yard to make sure you feel comfortable and its great to see the horses in there stables. The riding school also offers 2 day courses... (read more)

Bold Heath is a very good riding school, with lots of facilities and horses/ponies. There is 2 indoor schools and 3 outdoor schools one of which can be split up into 2 arenas. There is also acres of land suitable for hacks on lessons; and for events as they have lots of xc fences.They hold lots of events and also have a cafe for when the events are on.
Their ponies are well behaved and they always pick a suitable sized pony/horse for the rider and the staff are friendly and...

would not reccommend bold heath to anybody, as all the staff are rude, think they are better than everybody not realising some people are still learning. shove in your face they are better than you!, and would rather put you down than give you advice that is constructive...the announcer for the show is ridiculous and does not take very lightly to admitting she was wrong. since they insist they're professionals they should have the correct timing equipment positioned to show where the timing...

I have to say I do not think the staff are rude at all I ask questions and get honest true advice, could it be that you are not willing to learn and a bit of a moaner/no it all. I think this is just a bitter competitor who does not like being beaten far and square. In my opinion :)

Written on: 02/01/2010
I rode there twice, and never went again. The yard was filthy! I would not recommend this riding school as they allow inexperienced riders who don't even have the correct position in canter to jump! They do teach, but not well enough. They work on extremely basic movements with experienced riders, which i think is unfair.
They sometimes change arenas about halfway through a lesson, wasting 15 minutes of paid-for time. The amount of people on a lesson sometimes is too many, and you hardly...

they change arena's to give the rider a better lesson or to use other facilities in other arenas.

Bold Heath Equestrian Centre offers good facilities and welcoming and they help you to progress quickly and can teach to a very high level, higher than any other riding school I know in Mersyside, and believe me as I have ridden in most. Plus they have good canteen facilities and very good viewing condition for parents to watch from plenty of seats. (read more)
