Willowbrook Riding Centre

We had a fabulous hack in the beautiful countryside. The horses are well cared for and forward going whilst safe. Lots of opportunities for trotting and cantering. Belinda led the ride and was competent and friendly. We rode to Stansted Park along bridleways and very little time on the road, what a privilege! So very grateful for such a wonderful opportunity.

Great experienced hack out with Belinda. Enjoyed a few lovely canters and good amount of trotting. Safe forward going horses. Lovely scenery (despite the awful weather). Stables were organised and welcoming. Tack in good condition etc. Booked over the phone. Would recommend.

Our daughter hurt her back, we gave plenty of notice to cancel a private lesson (£45) when she was better we booked another lesson but had to cancel because a COVID quarantine stopped her going a second time.When I tried to rebook I was told we had to pay again! No one has ever said about paying again after a second cancellation?? Also booked a hack for two (£70) in July but had to cancel because of Covid. Just tried to rebook, asked why it took so long to rebook and was told I had to pay again. What a rip off ! That was a birthday present for my daughter and her friend. Christine the owner said “well it’s not my fault you had to cancel” ! How rude - She was definitely not in a queue for manners! Just as well she is closing the stables down. But on a good note that means Kerry the instructor who is great and a good teacher will find another job that I’m sure she will be greatly appreciated in. Avoid Willowbrook stables unless you don’t mind giving your money away to a rude woman who should of sold her stables a long time ago.
