About this yard

Dickey Steps Riding School is a BHS approved family-run yard at Dickey Steps Farm in Rakewood, Littleborough, on the doorstep of Hollingworth Lake Country Park. Lessons run for riders from age 4 across all levels, with cross-country, BHS exam preparation and stable management alongside the school programme. RDA and therapy sessions run by appointment. Hacks, birthday parties, Pony for the Day and overnight stabling for riders working the Pennine bridleways (including the Mary Townley loop) round out the offer. An all-weather floodlit ménage extends use into the evenings.
