Clearwater riding school has given my daughter the most incredible introduction to riding. The ponies are kind and give the children so much confidence, Monet has gone from an absolute learner to being able to ride independently and cantering the sweet pony Dime around by herself. I can highly reccomend this riding school.

I had an incredible experience learning how to ride horses at Clearwater Riding School. The environment is safe, friendly, supportive, and importantly, fun! The standard of care for both horses and riders is excellent, and the teaching is impeccable. I would highly recommend Clearwater Riding School for beginner riders as well as experienced equestrians.
