About us

We are driven by a common passion, a love for movement, competition, and the joy of play. Founded with the belief that sports should be accessible and enjoyable for all, we've created a vibrant community where people of diverse backgrounds and abilities come together.

Wellington Saddle Club was founded on a simple idea: that riding is better when you share it with others. Based at Wellington Riding in Heckfield, Hampshire — one of the UK's leading BHS-approved equestrian centres — we're a community of riders who come together through a shared love of horses and the countryside.

Our members come from all walks of life and all levels of experience. Whether you're taking your first nervous steps in the saddle or you've been riding for years, you'll find a friendly, supportive group of people here who understand exactly what you're going through — because they've been there too.

We make the most of the outstanding facilities at Wellington Riding, from its superb arenas to its beautiful 500-acre estate setting on the Duke of Wellington's Hampshire grounds. Club membership gives you more than just a place to ride; it gives you a community to grow with, learn from, and enjoy the sport alongside.

At Wellington Saddle Club, it's not just about the riding — it's about the friendships built at the yard, the encouragement after a tricky lesson, and the shared excitement of events and achievements. We're proud of the welcoming, inclusive atmosphere our members have created, and we'd love for you to be part of it.
