  • 5 Wonderful Birthday Pony Party

    Best birthday party ever. My daughter had her birthday party at this riding school last sunday and I can honestly say it was the best party that I have ever been to. The staff were wonderful, so friendly and so lovely with all the children. It was really well organised with the children getting a chance to ride and groom and look after the ponies. The food provided was excellent and there was far too much of everything. Really lovely place and brilliant for childrenn and families. Definitely would recommend and thanks to Sharon, Leanne and Bianca for making our day perfect.

  • 5 Absolutely Brilliant Riding School

    I have been to most of the riding schools in the area and Carrington is by far the best in everyway. I have been going to this school for a number of years and the recent improvements are fab. There are far more horses than there used to be and they now have 3 really good arenas that have an excellent rubber surface and makes riding so much more pleasurable, I sometimes go to the group lessons but mainly I enjoy a private lesson with Ali or the odd hack out. The horses are so lovely and very well looked after, I always have a good ride. My favourite at now is Marley, he's just great. The instructors are excellent. Friendly reassuring and so accomodating. The cafe is clean and comfortable and makes great ... I have been to most of the riding schools in the area and Carrington is by far the best in everyway.

The cafe is clean and comfortable and makes great snacks and hot drinks. there is now an indoor toilet which is always freash and clean. Another new addition is the riding shop which I found to be really cheap. I have bought a hat and jod boots which are really good quality and aaron, who runs it is so friendly and helpful, I would definite ly recommend

  • 5 Best riding centre in Manchester

    I have been going to this school for about 3 months with my two daughters. We all ride at different levels and the school is able to accomodate all of us at very reasonable prices. They have a new horse virtually every time we go and there are always different events such as shows, courses and days on the farm. My youngest daughter has just joined Pony Club too and goes every monday night, she's loving it. Well done to all the wonderful staff at Carrington and thank you for making our riding experience so much fun.

  • 5 What a differerence!

    Haven't been here for a while but went for a group adult lesson just before Xmas and wow what a difference! Fantastic horses, I rode Shannon who was just fabulous to ride, challenging but so good. The cafe is brilliant....baked potatoes, wonderful on a cold. It was also so refreshing that all the staff were so friendly and helpful. I have booked my next lesson and I hope to go now every week. Would definitely recommend

    As a family our first experience was excellent, all staff who i came in contact with were welcoming and friendly. Ryan has been giving private lessions to my daughter and her 2 cousins and are still realy enjoying it. The horses are well cared for.

  • 5 All Round excellence!

    Great surroundings and facilities, well behaved and looked after horses. Very experienced instructors and very friendly staff. I loved my first experience this weekend and I would highly reccommend. The owner is very nice and helpful contrary to another review on this site.

    Carrington. . . What can i say really? it's of average quality, not the best, but not the worst (i suppose). Tiny arena, but nice horses (if a bit slow and hard to ride). Horrible owner but nice teachers (some of whom are qualified). Ok, i'll admit it. . . I don't like this place, but some people might like it. . . .
