Come and stay in the heart of a peaceful and rural stable!

I have been teaching horse riding for more than 25 years and have competed from an early age. My passion for horses started very young and I was riding at the tender age of three. I started my first business at 17, teaching horse riding in my home county of Yorkshire, and have been teaching ever since.
​
I treat my horses like humans, they are not machines, and I encourage them to have their own personality. My riders learn so much more about horse riding through communicating with them, and the riding experience is so much more memorable.
​
I built Gallop View Stables over 14 years, and am very proud of the lovely Gallop View Lodge that enables me to share this beautiful space with guests. I see the stables as one big family - the animals, guests and customers. We love a laugh, plus lots of cakes!

The Yard
Situated in the idyllic village of Failand, Gallop View Stables is a small but perfectly formed yard, with stunning views of the Bristol Channel. The yard itself is about 2.5 acres and includes 3 fields for grazing, 2 feeding pens and seven stables with tacks rooms. In addition to this there is also a large outdoor arena with rubber footing, complete with adjustable jumps. The arena is used all the year round and has lighting for the winter evenings. There is also a large field with several cross country jumps to get in that extra practice.​
​
From the yard there are miles and miles of wonderful hacking countryside.
​
Gallop View Stables is proud to be one of the few stables in the area that hold the coveted five stars animal welfare licence, awarded by North Somerset Council.
