Salter Royd Equestrian Centre, West Yorkshire

Our daughter has been riding at salteroyd since January and has really enjoyed her time there. She’s also helped out on a few occasions mugging out and leading horses (voluntary) which she’s also enjoyed… that was until today.

After picking our daughter up i was welcomed with tears, she was told by the owner that it would be better for her to stick to riding school and not help out anymore due to her ‘attitude” and questioned if she was naughty at school and did she get told off often!! (This is to an 11 year old)

My husband called to get an understanding of what had actually gone on, as any parent would, only to be met with ‘attitude’ from said person throwing in a few chosen French words for good measure. (Classy)

When questioning her attitude my hubby was told to kindly copulate elsewhere!!

So, if you want your son / daughter to enjoy horse riding, please think twice about Salterude!!

Rude and extremely arrogant staff very disappointed with the service & attitude, would not recommend to anyone.

Salter royd by far is the best livery yard around Wilsden , The owners are they for you if you need they help, or if you prefer to be left alone that's fine.

They his ample turn out in summer, turn out in winter off course is limited to one field, but at least your horse can stretch his or her legs.

They his summer BQ also various horse shows each month, they is a large in door arena, and in summer 120 acres to ride over, every one is friendly.

i have been riding there for 8 years now and with out a dout it been the best 8 years of my life. The workers are fab and everyone is really nice and always have a smile on there face.

Ive gone from one horse to the next and ive learnt how to ride at my own paste. I ride every week and now even started to have jumping lessons.

The horses are nicley looked after and are cleaned out all the time. Everyone from starting to ride ,to knowing every thing is sure to have a great time.

The hacks are amazing around the fields and in the school your sure to have a fun time.Your not pushed into anything you dont want to do. I also go up and help alot and have made so many friends

I would recommend to anyone who would want to learn how to ride. This is the best riding school in West Yorkshire!

Right, where do I start. I have been riding a salter royed for eight years now and have had such an amazing time there.

So I started there when I was four and had a half an hour lesson (£9) there I learnt to stop, walk,trot and steer the pony. Once I got a bit bigger and older I started riding for one hour (£15) and I kept trying as hard as I could and eventually learnt to canter. From then on I have learnt to jump as well.

In the holidays there is a couse which is all ages from four and up. It's twenty-five pounds a day and you learn to care for your horse and also ride for two one hour sessions. Also you can go from Monday to Friday for one hundred pounds too.

Overall salter royed is a good riding school and caters for all abilities!

Salter Royd is a good riding school and livery yard. The prices start at £9 for a half-hour group lesson and £15 for a group hour lesson. There are two rides, one with a fully qualified instructor and one with the owner for the more advanced riders. The rides take place in an indoor school during the winter and for the advanced riders on the roads. Then during the summer the rides hack out around the land, again with the two separate rides. The rides are available throughout the year every day of the week with jumping lessons and private lessons available. Its perfect for a relaxed hack if your more experienced or if your a beginner and want to learn how to ride (helpers will also lead the rider).With a wide range of horses from large to small, fast to slow. You will be put on the appropriate horse for your experience and size so anyone is welcome. Including people with disabilities. Overall I think it is a good riding school for anyone who wants to come along and join!

I have been riding at salter royed since I was 7 and have been helping there since I was 8 . I think it's a great place to go if your interested in horses. The instructors are great . There are two different rides one with Jackie and one with Vicky . Jackies ride is for the less experienced riders ,in the summer Jackie takes her ride on a hack round the fields at a slower pace than Vickys ride in the winter Jackie brings her ride into the in door areana . Vickys ride is for advanced riders in the summer the ride does the same as Jackie but goes through more fields and goes at a faster pace in the winter Vicky takes her ride on a quiet hack on the roads . The horses are great and well cared for my favourite is BURTY he's amazing !!! Every week I look forward to going . Overall I think it's a great place to be !!!!

hi,

i have been at salter royd for atleast 3 years now, and have been riding for 8 years in january. the horses are verry well looked after and is a horse for all ages and abilities and even what you like to do on them (eg jumping, schooling, hacking,ect). you can go on hacks with vicky (the owner and an instructor) or jackie (an instructor for the less confident or less experianced horse riders). i love the livery facilitys as i have kept my horse there for three years as i said earlyer. there is three large arenas free for liverys to use, many large luxurius stables for your horse or pony, feed and/or tack rooms, paddocks to ride in in summer spring and the nice days in autumn. allso, turnout in all the fields in spring summer and autumn but in winter a couple of fialds for the liverys to share. the liverys thre are all verry welcoming and willing to talk to each other, be sociable and be your friend and there are about three children with horses there ( me being one of them). in concluesion, salter royd has educated me so much about horses since going there, i think it will for you aswell.

thank you
