Had two lunge lessons there so far. I have a knee injury, I am overweight and 40+. I am trying to learn to become a better rider and I was a bit nervous they would look down on me and not being interested in helping me with my personal goals. I have had nothing but positive. Jack has been my instructor, he has respected my level and adjusted the training around it. I feel worked through after the lessons (only h so far due to my fitness level) and both times I feel I have got great homework to do on my level. I am really happy for what OEC are doing for me at the moment.

Tips, like with most things in life: Specify your goals then it is easier to achieve what you want and for people to help you along.

I have just moved to Oldencraig (2 days ago) with my 14.2 and I have been made to feel so welcome. He is a very nervous little boy and he has settled in there unbelievably. He is happy and stuffing his face every time I go past his stable. He is so different from anything there yet they are so helpful and encouraging.
Even though all the instructors are very busy they have all made time to answer any questions I have. I have had time to watch lots of lessons and the standard of teaching is high. The facilities are the best you could ask for and so far there isn't a bad thing I can say about Oldencraig.

Went to Oldencraig for two days, staff could not have been any nicer, my daughter and pony got to feel very special. The facilities are absolutely fantastic, the staff and riders very professional. Had a fantastic time and would definitely go back. Cant think of anything negative to say !!

I have to say that I have been a livery client for over 3 years, first with my own horse and then a horse purchased thorugh Oldencraig. I have never personally had any problems at all with the owners, in fact they have always been helpful and made any changes that have been requested regarding the management of our horse.
Yes the staff turnover is high, but as a livery owner we feel that our horse is very well cared for, turned out daily, and exercised as we would wish.
Also the facilities are far better than anything else in the area and not as expensive as some

I took my daughter and a friend to Oldencraig for a birth day treat. It was clear we were not rich people worth cultivating (ancient old banger etc), but they could not have been more welcoming. On arrival they gave each birthday girl a card and the owner wished them happy birthday and told them about the history of Oldencraig. They had really listened to what I told them about the kind of horse and lesson needed for each person, and it was a red letter day for both of them.

I have purchased horses from Oldencraig since 1999,all of which have gone on to become top dressage stars.I found them very helpful and genuine.My example is a purchase of a gelding that I did not get on with.After having him for a couple of months he was swopped for another horse with no questions asked.You cant ask more than that!
