We welcome new riders to come and discover the variety of riding opportunities that Wimbledon Village Stables offers.  Experienced riders can hack out with us or, if you're new to riding, you can take a private lesson with one of our Instructors.  We also offer a wide range of  Short Riding Courses which cater for all levels and ability from 'Learning to Ride in a Day'  to dressage and jumping.

You can watch a very enjoyable short film showing life at WVS by clicking on this link: WVS ON FILM
