It is with great regret that we have to inform you that after fifty wonderful years, The York Riding School will finally be closing its doors on August 31st 2025. 

All lessons and activities will continue until this date but the business will be liquidated shortly thereafter. 

This decision is due to the retirement of the proprietor, compounded by continuing uncertainty over the dualling of the York Outer Ring Road and the increased operation costs and regulation in the industry which have made it increasingly challenging to sustain the business. 

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all our past and present clients for your support, dedication, and love for equestrian activities. Your passion has made our riding school a vibrant community, and we will cherish the memories created together.

We are committed to finding the best possible homes for our horses and ponies and welcome approaches to do so. 

Thank you once again for being an integral part of The York Riding School.

The York Riding School has been operating from its home on Wiggington Road for over 40 years. You can use lovely modern facilities including a rubber surfaced all weather outdoor arena.

All of our horses and ponies are good quality and are carefully selected to be suitable for learning to ride.

Please note for adult lessons we are not accepting new riders. All our adult lessons are fully booked and permanent regular spaces rarely become available.
