    I have been to quite a few riding places but Hargate is the best. They do let you pick which horse you ride but if you need to work on something specific they will choose the best one for you for a few lessons. The horses are kept clean and it is a tidy stables. When you have been going for a couple of lessons they will let you tack up if someone is free to show you. You can even join clubs to brush up on your skills. They have a great indoor and outdoor riding arena. Also they have show fields. It is quite expensive (the most expensive i have been to yet) but it is worth the money. I think it is really good that you book different types of lessons or go on a hack. Overall this is a great riding school.

    I only went a couple of times to Hargate Hill and it was extremely good but I was only having an hour semi-private and it was £23!! however the quality of the lessons was very high and the facilities for the horses are of the highest standard, they each have a big stable (that as far as I saw was always nearly spotless), they also have a stall each, a walker and even a dryer for rainy days. Great, if expensive, riding school :)

    I love hargate hill so much I have been riding there for 3 years I have a lesson there and I learn so much in half an hour. The staff are great they are such lovely people and you can easily make friends with them. Everyone is really friendly at hargate, if you dont know what to do with the horses help is always there. I have one on loan at the moment, its great there are so many facilities. Yes it can be a little expensive but you recieve so much more than what you pay for. Hargate is brill I w ...

    I absolutely love hargate hill, the staff i have met are really nice, and help me with loads of things. You can meet the horses and ponies and get to know all of thier characters. I have been riding there since i was 4 years old, it has been on and off, due to alergies. I would never think of going anywhere else, although it is rather expensive. Arthur is top, Mona is also lovely, i cant think of anyewhere better. =]

    I've been riding for years but i never got taught anything, then i started going to Hargate and I've learnt so much in such a short space of time.
    I ride Mona and she's always really good for me, and its nonsense that theyre kept in bad condition! All the horses are fit and healthy and are definately not overworked. Ive drove down the lane many times and seen some of the horses in the fields jumping over the logs ect
    The staffare really friendly too, only this saturday i had help with untacking ...

    I have been riding at Hargate for longer than I care to remember - since 1988! In all that time staff have changed, horses have changed, facilities have changed but the constant in all this change has been Mike Tyldesley and his family. They have worked exceptionally hard to provide the current riding/livery establishment - well done to you all!

    I have been going to Hargate for years now and have ridden most of the horses there and they all rock! Mojo, Bugsey, Alfie, Pepe and Royality were the best but 3 of them have gone now. I keep my horse there and the livery is expensive but when you need help the staff are great to have around, plus most of the other liveries will help out when they can.

    There are great rides around like Coombes and the Longendale trail which are brilliant for hack out and a gallop. Reccommened for everyone, whet ...

    Hargate Hill is the best riding school ive ever been to. The riding school horses are great, they are suitable for any ability. We have 2 horses on loan up there and there are so many things to do, The facilities are fantastic. The only bad point is that the livery is pretty exspensive, but i guess you get what you pay for.

    Rode at Hargate for many years and found the teachers to be really nice (some more intimidating than others) but i learnt a lot and they really helped me build up my confidence from a young age. Prices are a bit rough, but you get more than your moneys worth.
    The horses are amazing and yes, some do have rather small stalls but they have more than enough field space which they go out in when they don't have lessons.
    The atmosphere is excellent and it's pretty much always clean.
    After doing work ...

    I love it at Hargate I honestly can't fault it! (Well, its a bit expensive!) I have been going to Hargate for two years now, and I love it! When people are complaining about the staff saying that they aren't experienced enough, it's because it's true! If you havent rode for two years then how do you expect to go out of a hack and probably for a gallop when you havent even sat on one for two years! The staff can sometimes get stressed out, who wouldn't? They have to muck out about 20 horses, put ...

    Spent lots of money on riding lessons and keeping horse there, got little help and advice and made to feel stupid at times.

    Had lessons at Hargate Hill for several years and made some progress, especially my daughter. Owned own horse and kept it on yard. Yard too busy and too many horses are kept there. Some of staff not very helpful (although others were very nice) and sometimes made you feel stupid. Was glad when we left.

    I did a year course and got my stage one and road saftey at Hargate, it was the best year of my life so far some tutors were brilliant, I learnt more than I'll ever learn in a lifetime. It's a shame the course is stopping it's a great thing to do when you are a scool leaver. The horses are wonderful, even sultan, grumpy old man but love him to bits. Want teaching to ride, look no further.
