I had booked a long weekend in Nottinghamshire for my daughter's 9th birthday on 5th September as a treat as our other holidays earlier on in the year had been cancelled. My daughter had just got into programmes about horses and really wanted to try riding. I did an online search and found Sherwood Trekking Centre. The reviews were good. I messaged them on Facebook messenger and arranged to book a trek on her birthday as a surprise. They got back to me straight away and we're very efficient and friendly, answering questions as to what we should wear etc. We were all novices. I was able to put a deposit down through BACs payment and pay the rest on the day. Prices very reasonable, £25 for an hour trek. They took our height and weight to match us with suitable horses. When we got there we completed the disclaimer forms and they were great at conforming to the covid rules, handing us the the riding school safety jackets and bibs to fit ourselves with verbal instruction and same with riding hats. They took the children round the field at first to check they were ok and we're sitting correctly etc. Then we set off for our ride to Sherwood Forest. We felt very safe as we were all lead individually. The horses looked really well looked after and had lovely temperaments. We had to go through the village to get to the forest and the horses were very used to the roads and traffic. I was also impressed by how good the villagers were with the horses. The cars were very patient and people smiled and waved which the kids loved. The walk through the forest was great. We even had a little trot. They let us ride ourselves through the forest with instruction, which was fantastic, and they walked beside us. The owner, Karen was lovely and chatted all the way. It was a fabulous first experience for the kids. It made my daughter's birthday! She absolutely loved it. We also got a full hours trek (the time taken to complete the forms and get kitted out didn't count like I thought it would). When we got back from the trek they all sung happy birthday to Poppy. I Can't thank Karen and her staff enough we had a wonderful time. I would 100 % recommend this riding school and we will definitely come again when in the area again.

My daughter who has mild learning disabilities has now been attending Coloured Cob for over 4 years and thoroughly enjoys the group lessons. The staff are very friendly and accommodating and very quickly assessed my daughters capabilities with their horses/ponies being allocated based on their customers experience. Perfect place for both beginners and experienced riders and if you speak nicely to Gail you may even get a chocolate or two. Why not give it a go I’m sure you will enjoy it.
