Caldecote Riding School
About this yard
Caldecote Riding School operates from Caldecote Lane outside Nuneaton and holds both BHS and ABRS+ approval, the highest tier of ABRS accreditation. The yard is deliberately kept small and friendly, with horse welfare at its centre: all horses live out permanently and are never sold, reflecting a principled, long-term approach to animal care. Lessons span the full ability range from beginners through to riding test preparation, and Pony Club activities are catered for. The school is particularly welcoming to nervous riders, and offers instruction in German for German-speaking clients. A resident alpaca herd available for accompanying walks adds an enjoyable extra. Livery is available on-site.
